99 & later brakes

[DonnieB]

I am looking for low cost upgrade or swap to repair pulsing brake pedal. I always feel the brakes pulse when stopping. Replacing stock parts does not fix problem except for a day or two. I have a 99 Grand Cherokee 2WD 4.0 automatic driven by my wife, very little city driving. I don't understand why this vehicle has some much trouble from the brakes. Any help is appreciated.

Those front axles are known for warping the rotors, consider a pair of slotted/cross-drilled performance rotors.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have been thinking of that but, I want to know if anyone has tried them. Are they worth the money?

My patrol car would repeatedly warp rotors until I went to the slotted/cross-drilled rotors.

There is a TSB from Chrysler sent out on Dec.16th ,2002 pertaining on Brake pulsations. it involves replacement of the front rotors, Brake calipers. The TSB number is 05-003-02 REVB. i hope this helps.

That sounds to me like a pretty good endorsement!!!
