Where are the upgraded brake kits?

[JC7]

For real... Where are they? The MOPAR kit is just the Rubicon kit which I already have. Are you guys not feeling the loss of stopping power with the bigger tires?

I've been wondering the same thing as that would be my next project. Honestly breaking has been good with me. Mine is a 2 door with heavy rotational mass. 42lb wheels with 35x12.5 tires

Don’t think they are out yet but, Teraflex has these in the works: https://teraflex.com/news_items/ter...ited-delta-brake-kit-with-high-modulus-bridge

Alcon and Baer offer Big brake Kits for f/r for the JL. That are out on the market already.

The Rubicon has 13" rotors with single sided dual pistons. That's a decent upgrade from the standard brakes. But someone running 37 or 40 tires may want for more. Those Teraflex 14" rotors look like they'd do the trick. My JLUR is dead stock and I've felt like it has a lot of braking margin so far. But I haven't loaded it up and had to brake hard.

If you have a Rubicon, it comes stock with the big break kit you used to have to buy after market for the JK. Can't complain about that.

True, that's a pretty good upgrade, and since most Jeepers seem to prefer 17" wheels a real large BBK might not work for many of those.

The Rubicon brakes w/ some upgraded performance pads should be a nice pkg. Not sure what the aftermarket has in regards to pads w/ improved bite, but that would be something to consider for sure.

We actually have big brake kits available for JL!

Front Kit

Rear Kit

Those are the biggest we offer. But there is also a slightly smaller kit here and here.
