Doing my rear breaks tomorrow and got some new ceramics and question is do you put any thing on the back of these? Grease or anti squeal.

 

Hawk ceramic pads come with grease for the rear of the pad but they only do front ceramic pads for the JK, what brand of pad did you go with?

 

Ceramic pad have amazing stopping power but tend to squeak. Made that mistake. Looking to switch back to semi metallic .really annoying with the doors off. Grease those pads

 

Grease the stopping surface? Really?
I have ceramics on the rear along with drilled/slotted rotors. They don't really squeal.

 

Yeah, x2. Don't grease the side that contacts the rotor. That's a recipe for disaster. I have hawk pads in the rear. You grease the back of them, but not the contact side. Mine squealed for the first couple hundred miles, then stopped. Use some brake cleaner and make sure your rotors are clean

 

Thanks
