I'm struggling to find the front pads and rotors for my 2020 JLUS (S). I called dealer and gave VIN and they confirmed BRY brake code, but O'Reilly, Autozone and Advance are not able to tell me if their products will fit. Any assistance would be helpful.

Autozone 'thinks' this pad will fit, but it has reference to BR2/BR6: Duralast Gold Ceramic Brake Pads DG2187
Autozone also 'thinks' this front rotor will fit but not positive: Duralast Brake Rotor 72216DL

wish you where a couple thousand miles closer. id give you a full set of sportS brakes for free with only 8K miles on them.

Also look at powerstop. i swapped my full system out for their big brake kit upgrade. made quite the difference with the bigger tires and wheels

None. I’ve had the big brake kit for three years and 20k miles without issues . I do recommend the “extreme” pads. They will last a little longer

i’ve used these on my old J**p for a couple-hundred thousand miles; no issues.

after talking to some brake engineers (who make brakes for heavier and faster vehicles than our jeeps) i don’t think slotting/drilling is worth paying extra for with modern pad material technology, but i don’t mind it.


Thanks for the direct links. Truly appreciate it. No issues with slotted/drilled rotors with moderate off-road?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm trying to get anything that will be a verified fit. Not sure why the local stores are having these issues saying if the pads/rotors will fit or not..seems ridiculous.

to be fair, i get the confusion.
J**p used several different configurations of brakes on JL(U)s, sometimes in the same year.

As far as power stop calipers go. I called the company and ask what so special about your calipers.
I was told that they are Jeep factory calipers rebuilt with factory parts and painted red.

Not interested in calipers but PowerStop is about $100 cheaper for 4 rotors and pads all around.

I crossed into Buffalo to go to autozone, I was surprised at how little they had for the JLUS. I came home empty handed.
