    That could be my issue with the dragging. The outer edges and on the inner part, like the middle of the rotor and pretty rusty. Any suggestions on where to get pads and rotors? Brands?

    For rotors I recommend Centric Premiums (~$47ea) and pads id go with Akebono (~$63). Theres cheaper pad options like Wagner's for ~$30 if moneys tight.

    Check out rockauto and find a 5% discount code.

    Great thanks Matt. When I got home from work I went out to see if I could find the "dragging" noise. I finally found it. It is the left front, and on the inside of the rotor there is some kind of metal plate, or shield maybe? (Again, excuse my ignorance, I don't know much about these things lol). On the bottom, it seems like it is dragging on the rotor, or on something. I layed underneath and just rolled the Jeep a tiny bit with my hand, and I could hear it dragging. Then I pulled it away from the rotor with one hand and again rolled it with my other, and there was no noise. I tried to shows on the next couple pictures where it seems to be dragging. Hopefully someone will be able to understand lol.




    While I was under there, I noticed what seems to be some kind of leak, so I started another topic with some pics of that. Sorry for being such a pain in the ass today lol.

    That's just the dust shield. Problem solved! They tend to make a lot of noise when they catch rocks/mud when wheeling lol.
