I'll be following the brake upgrade MadsV, I'm getting tired of having to refurb mine every year due to stuck calipers etc, so looking at what can be done to improve them
Yes same here. I refurbished the right one last january, now its the left one thats hanging. There is some good threads on the forum about this upgrade also.
I am doing my brakes this weekend I hope. Got the correct vented discs with 108mm center hole (ABS-models) before christmas but haven't had the time to swap the parts yet. Calipers and hangers have been lying in the shelf for years as they where supposedly going on my SJ. But better to start using them sooner i guess.
Also changing the rear master cylinders and shoes as the handbrake hangs up in reverse. All sticky and gooey in there from leakage and dirt.
Ordered complete front brake kit for diesel jimny at brakes.com with ebc greenstuff pads. And ordered calipers from Meca, brand FTE, for 5 door vitara g16b.
I can post links with the parts if you like, will probably make a bigger post with details when i’m fitting it

Aha.. No need for details right now, but it`ll be interesting to read youre post afterwards!
Brakes sure could be better than stock.. Lets hope youre brake bias still will be ok, or are you doing rear too?
