I'm having a brainfart...
Just making sure, but Front Rotors from a '90-'98 Wrangler will fit on the front of my '98 XJ, right? If not anyone looking to buy some rotors?

The year 1999/2000 have different hub thicknesses and calls for different rotor depths. I learned this the hard way when i ordered hubs/rotors for my tj.

Make sure it's a quality brand. Some are knock-offs that aren't well made. I had drilled/slotted rotors from PowerStop and they were the best rotors i've had. I used Hawk pads with them. Found a deal on ebay for $100 shipped for both pads and rotors. I guess i was lucky back then.

Hope your not going to wheel in mud with drilled rotors. If you are you'll have issues. The mud tends to cake in the holes and blow them apart... Solid is the best way to go on a wheeling rig...

Nah, I don't really get the '98 in to the mud all that much. I used this company before on my Monte Carlo, and other than putting them on the lathe to double check any wapr issues from machining and getting the surface prepped how I like, they hold out pretty good. I usually run Performance Friction pads on everything, but I just went with Wagner this time around. I used to use them exclusively until the parts stores out here seemed to stop carrying them for some reason.

O'Reilley's has the Wagners if you have them in the Windy City. I just replaced mine 2 weeks ago.
