Looking for new rear brakes but don't know what to get. its the first brake job on my jk. It's a fully stock jk. What do you recommend I will also be getting rotors

 

Cross drilled rotors with Hawks pads. Look on Summit Racing - Performance Car and Truck Parts, Accessories and More!.

 

I second the hawk pads but you'll be fine running standard rotors. No need for the extra cost of drilled and/or slotted rotors.

 

I saw a lot if people like those pads would it matter what brand of rotor

i bought these a couple of weeks ago. like em so far.

 

Don't forget to pull the E-brake drums off and check the E-brakes. At the least clean everything up and make sure the mechanism moves freely.

 

There was a post several months ago from a guy who claimed to make his living in high performance and racing cars.
He said, amongst other things, that drilled and slotted rotors, while important for high performance cars, were not a good idea for off-road and daily driver vehicles.
I'm not recalling the specifics of the reasons, and I'm not taking a position on this; just thought I'd offer it up for your consideration.

 

The main reason drilled and slotted rotors aren't recommended for off-road vehicles is that stones and debris can get caught in the holes and tear up the pads. If you don't go off road they're fine, but probably of little advantage unless you ride the brakes often (or tow a heavy trailer without brakes). The purpose of the slots is to dissipate heat, which isn't much of a problem in normal driving conditions. They're used on racing cars because of the heat buildup from constant high speed braking on the track. You don't need them on a daily driver.

 

What kind of hawk brakes are u guys getting the LTS ?

 

Yup. I use the LTS pads.
