TRQ Rear Brake Caliper Set Compatible with 1994-1998 Jeep Grand

Our review of the TRQ Rear Brake Caliper Set finds it best suited for owners restoring braking performance on a 1994-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee who need a straightforward, no-hassle replacement. These calipers arrive as a 2 piece kit with both driver and passenger side units, and the single biggest reason to buy is the fully new construction with upgraded seals and included hardware that lets a mechanically competent DIYer or independent shop complete a rear caliper service without sourcing extra parts. The review focuses on fit, materials, and ease of installation.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement so no modifications are needed and installation follows factory mounting points for a quick swap.
• All New Construction: Both calipers are 100% new components, which eliminates the need to deal with a core return or rebuilt unit concerns.
• Hardware Included: The kit ships with seals, washers, abutment kit and brackets where applicable, providing a complete repair in one purchase and reducing downtime sourcing parts.
• Zinc Coated Finish: A zinc coating helps resist rust and extend service life in wet or salty conditions common to many climates.
• EPDM Seals: Upgraded EPDM seals improve resistance to thermal deterioration and help maintain long term piston performance.

Who It's For

This caliper set is targeted at Jeep Grand Cherokee owners from the 1994-1998 model years who want a direct replacement that matches original fitment and restores braking function without custom work. It is also a good choice for independent mechanics and DIYers who prefer to buy a complete rear caliper kit with hardware included to simplify the job.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who require OEM-branded packaging for warranty reasons or vehicles outside the listed fitment, and anyone needing calipers with integrated pads - these are calipers without pads and intended to be used with the existing or separately purchased brake pads and rotors.
