#94 of 104 Re: low speed brake grinding/pulsating problem! [docsjeep] by ajrock2000 Sep 02, 2009 (11:01 am)
Replying to: docsjeep (Sep 02, 2009 10:53 am) Yes, I did! I had recently replaced the u-joints in the front wheels and part of the spindle got broken a bit with the hammer, so when it was spinning the abs sensor was not picking up the correct reading, so at low speeds it caused the abs to kick in and go haywire. What I did was disconnect the abs sensor in the front wheel and it turned the abs off, now my brakes work fine.
#96 of 104 2004 Grand Cherokee Limited Brake Questions by trailrated39 Sep 24, 2009 (6:57 am)
Hi all!   I've got a 2004 Grand Cherokee (Limited, 4.7V8, etc) that is coming up on 150K and is in need of some new brake components once again. Rather than go to the shop and get bent over like usual, I'm going to just tackle this one myself. I've done it before, so that's not the issue. My problem is that I don't know what pads and rotors to go with.   Now, I'm not looking to cheap out here. I'd like to get some pads that offer good performance for towing. I pull a 12 foot open trailer for both work and play, with loads ranging from a couple motocross bikes to 2000 pound of various raw materials. So towing performance is mandatory.   Conversely, this Jeep- despite being dearly loved- has seen a hard life of work, play and roadtrips, and wil probably be lucky to see 200k, so I don't want to get anything too expensive. Just something to last me the life of the vehicle.   Thanks James Replies to this message: ppaul3 (Nov 07, 2009 1:56 pm)

Replying to: trailrated39 (Sep 24, 2009 9:22 am) This is probably as good a place as any. People tend to follow exisiting discussions and may not see a brand new one anyway, especially if it seems to be a "duplicate".

Replying to: trailrated39 (Sep 24, 2009 6:57 am) Hi James,             I just finished my brake job this afternoon. I went with the ceramic pads from auto zone. They all had a life time warranty. so I went with the cheep ones. I found out during my pizza delivery days that the metallic pads did last longer but the rotors didn't last as long. If you need to take the rotors off, good luck!. You need to get the retaining clip off the stud the get the biggest hammer you have and beat the hell out of it to loosen it off the hub. use a piece of wood to protect the rotor.

Replying to: rsjeep (Nov 15, 2009 9:50 am) could still be a wheel bering as you shake stuff up when you work on it   try to find the side that makes noise then then jack up that side and turn wheel to see or feel roughness as you turn the wheel
