JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

One of the advantages of our Pro Grip brake kit is you don't have to disconnect any of the brake lines, so there's no bleeding necessary. You don't have to change master cylinder or calipers, and will still see a significant increasing in stopping power. Here's a link that explains the Pro Grip in more detail:

The Pro Grip kit comes with new, larger diameter rotors, upgraded pads, and new mounting brackets for the calipers to help relocate them on the large rotors.

Will this work with the atx slabs? Also my issue is the brake feel really soft and I have to hold it all the way down to keep my jeep at a complete stop and even then sometime it inches forward after my built 5.3 swap. So do you think your kit would help eliminate this?

Let me double check with our tech guys on ATX slab fitment. I'll post a reply after I get an answer from them.

Yes, ProGrip will work with ATX Slabs as long as they are 17-inch diameter wheels or larger.
