what kind of prices would good pads and shoes run me? theres really cheap sets and really expensive ones. i was thinking if i bought something mid range it would be fine but im not sure.

 

I am using Wagner pads and shoes on my 95 xj.
Have used Wagner thermoquite pads for a long time and have had good results.

 

those pads are ceramic right?

 

im bout to order some these EBC Greenstuff brake pads http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EBC-DP61022/

 

My wife says these are good pads

and these are good shoes

 

let me know how they work out if you go with them

 

hows the stopping power on the pads? lol

 

x2 I used thermoquiets as well with good results

 

i think thats what im gonna go with there not a bad price either

 

Sorry for the delay
Mine were: QC477's for the front and yes, they are ceramic. Do not forget to either get new rotors or have them turned. New pads should have either a new surface or a turned surface. This will also remove any warp that they may have gotten over the years.
on a 95 xj

Just my 2 cents, take it for what it's worth

 

Do you know how much it is to get them resurfaced?

 

All depends, My local parts store charges $7.50 per rotor if you buy pads and $10.00 per if you do not buy anything.

All depends on the shop.

 

Whatever you use don't use autozone brake pads duracrap, they started squealing after a day on new rotors.

 

That's not bad. Thanks

 

The regulars yes, but the Gold brand is actually Bosch brand in their box.
