Default BRAKE calipers
Hello
Is there a way to upgrade front calipers to stock vehicle so I could fix braking distance ? Is there some kind of stronger better calipers?

There are better brake pads and rotors you can use , the only other thing you can do is change them to the zj front brakes that are bigger .

I thought the XJ and ZJ front brakes were the same. The WJ brakes are bigger but you have to swap the whole knuckle. I'm tempted to try the WJ upgrade when I eventually need to do ball joints.
