Take a look at our Restraint JK Brake Upgrade kit.

Restraint By Rebel Off Road: Complete Brake Upgrade For Jeep Wrangler Jk
These brakes seemed interesting until I read one specific sentence:
"Customers state the stopping power is up to 40% better than stock."
With all due respect, whoever designs and makes brakes, know exactly how much stopping power they have vs the stock brakes.
Refraining from giving the data and publishing only what five customers state (which is highly subjective and prone to bias), may look like evasive sales babble.
"up to 40% better than stock" is meaningless, as '3% better' is within "up to 40% better than stock"...
The spelling mistakes on the webpage, do not encourage a serious product image either.
Now, I'm definitely NOT saying that these brakes aren't good.
They may be an excellent upgrade, which the webpage doesn't present as such in a convincing manner.
Given more factual data would make me consider these brakes more seriously.
Sorry for the bluntness... I do hope that you'll take it as constructive criticism.

Brake upgrades.
Thanks for all the feedback. I believe I will go with the T/F brake kit with slotted rotors along with the Master cylinder upgrade kit. I will wait for the release of the rear kit. I also have a lot of extra weight in armor so am definitely in need of more stopping power.
Thanks again

Yup that might be me. I put on the full Baer brake install front, rear and new lines. Highly recommend. Very expensive. Haven't had any issue yet. Replaces all the old brackets as well. I like to look of the Baer over other brands. But like others said. Pretty pricy.

Did you use the Baer in mud or anything that might stick in the holes?
