I noticed that I need new rear brake pads and I am going to do this my self. The question is am I in for any surprises? I mean this has never been a problem on any other vehicle but with the JK I just thought I would ask.:beer:

What are you doing that requires you to replace the rears so soon??? They should last 100k.

We've got 28k on ours and the rears are almost gone. Front is still fine. My theory is the ESP is using the back brakes a lot more than we realize to limit acceleration, etc.
