In a disc brake, two pads are placed on both sides of a rotating metal disc called a rotor. To help the vehicle slow down, these two pads push against the rotor. Brake pads are made from high-friction materials, while the discs are often made from gray iron. However, in high-performance cars, brake pads may also be made of ceramic or carbon fiber. These materials are very good at dissipating heat, which is a by-product whenever you apply the brakes. The more braking force there is, the more heat the brake creates. If the heat doesn’t dissipate properly, braking performance suffers and, in extreme cases, the wheels can catch fire. (Don’t worry: this is generally only an issue in race cars.)

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is widely acclaimed for its considerable off-road capabilities. On vehicles modified for off-roading, brakes are one of the most overlooked systems. A winch, massive bumpers, and big meaty tires are great, but you need to make sure the brakes are strong and powerful enough to handle trail conditions, especially with all that added weight. There are plenty of performance upgrades offered in the aftermarket which will aid you in bringing your hauler to a full stop without overwhelming the brakes.
Swapping for larger, thicker rotors is a popular upgrade. A bigger surface area means that the rotor can absorb a greater amount of heat from the pad and dissipate it more efficiently, minimizing brake fade. Pads are produced by blending various ceramic, resin, and metal compounds under pressure to create more advanced friction linings. They offer plenty of grip over the rotors and are more resistant to heat buildup. Disc conversion kits will make switching from drum-type to disc-type brakes a breeze. Hoses and lines are designed to handle higher pressure of hydraulic fluid without expanding. Our store is here to offer you a wide range of quality Jeep Grand Cherokee performance brakes, so you can prepare your SUV for the toughest conditions!
