TF is a great upgrade for the money. A huge difference over stock. No complaints with mine.

Candice, do you need pads and rotors or just pads. Very simple to replace either, rotors are just a little more involved.
I hear of people paying well over $500 just for front brakes.

Got my beach permit....most of the beaches are still closed up due to erosion. The only one that is open is Robert Moses, but the main enterence along with the air staion is closed.
Anyone go out at robert moses at the new beach enterence at the east end of feild 2?

Although it sucks that the air station is closed....it gave me an excuse to order an ARB Air System for the Jeep today!

Who wants to arrange a Jeep Beach Night sometime soon?

Remove your tires and check how much contact surface is still on the pads. If it is the pads, get them right away. The last thing you need to running them down to the backing plates, it will make you get into an accident and/or hyperextend or damage your caliper. Get some decent pads and do it yourself. I can install pads on these JKs in under 45 minutes for all 4 corners and that's with greasing the backing plates so you won't have caliper to backing plate contact noises. If you need help, let me know.

So what's open? is this a temp situation or closed for the season?
