The bottom line: this kit delivers a complete replacement package that simplifies a rear brake service by bundling ceramic pads, premium g-coated rotors, parking shoes and a basic brake chemical kit.

Key Features

• Ceramic pad material: The ceramic friction material aims to reduce brake dust and provide consistent stopping feel under normal road use.
• Premium G-coating: Electrostatic g-coated rotors offer long-lasting rust protection to keep rotors looking better and resist corrosion in wet climates.
• DOT 3 & 4 chemical compatibility: The kit includes brake cleaner and brake fluid specified for DOT 3 and DOT 4 systems, simplifying fluid service during installation.
• Application specific design: Parts are cast and finished to match the rear axle application for the listed Nitro and Liberty model years to promote fitment and service life.

Who It's For

This kit is best for owners of 2007-2011 Dodge Nitro or 2008-2012 Jeep Liberty who want a single, consolidated purchase to handle a rear brake overhaul. It suits DIY mechanics comfortable with replacing rotors, pads, and parking shoes and performing a brake fluid change or bleeding.

It is not ideal for owners who require OE-branded parts or who need a precise guarantee of fitment; some customers reported mixed fit outcomes, so those who need exact factory-match dimensions should verify rotor and pad fit before installation or consult a professional installer.
