Getting my ducks in a row. Already have Big David's kit. Anyone used the $77+ rotor/pad combo from Rock Auto? Are they any count?

If you want the best pads for your XJ consider the "HAWK" brand meant for HD use apps like racing, off road, etc. most all the larger 4wd parts places have them for Jeeps.

The cost to ship rotors is high! I'll go with NAPA Premiums and check out Hawk pads.

I always cross reference rotors with Amazon. Rock auto's prices are good, but shipping costs are high.

Guess I could check amazon. What I do buy from them is taxed because they put a warehouse in state not long ago.

You pay tax buying local anyways, but sometimes the parts are cheaper on amazon.
Centric premium rotors if you can.

If you go local, at a minimum Napa Safety stop pads.
Black magic pads are supposed to be the best, not sure if necessary in the back though.

Been checking. I can get the Centric premiums at Amazon for only $5 more than the NAPA premiums. I've got to make an order from Rock Auto anyhow so I can get Centric Posi-Quiet pads there. I recently put NAPA Premium ceramics on the front.


I was looking at Hawk and Black Magic products but since I'm not running much weight over stock(no large tires or hvy bumpers)don't feel I'd need them.

At AA I can get CARQUEST rotors for $28.99. Not bad.
