My own JK 'Big Brake' research:

Do not have these yet - are next up on my mod list this Fall.

I have never read or heard of ANY issues with this kit. Unlike the Wilwood, these are JK specific and tested. Don't you sleep man?

I hear you.. your probably right. What do mean the loctite sounds different? (Your last comment)

Smelled like pennies when i inspected it.

I've not heard of anyone using loctite on their caliper bolt. im taking that stuff apart quite often for cleaning and would get pretty annoyed if I had to deal with loctite every time.. I have had issues with caliper bolts coming loose and poor performance from not torquing properly, a mistake on my part.
 
90k on my jk, multiple times the calipers have been removed and reinstalled by me, Never loctite on any of my bolts, and not one has ever come loose. Shocking.
 
Bringing an old thread back to the top. For those that have done axle swaps, and did not care about ABS, did you just upgraded the MC and booster and bypassed the ABS stuff? Anyone on one ton dual piston Fords and 3/4 ton chevy rears running the JK8 setup with good results? thanks!

I guess I'm another idiot who found this thread, READ THE ENTIRE THING, came away with nothing. Awesome. Thanks majik.

Sorry for the zombie reply.
 
Idk about reading 51 pages worth of chatting but did the ram brakes work? I keep seeing people saying the crown bbk is just newer ram 1500 brakes.
 
Reading through this, the best take away is the Dynatrac Progrips with stock axles is the best stuff out there, which by the way just had installed in the jeep today.
