Default 04 XJR Brake Hardware

Anyone know where to get rear brake hardware for an 04 XJR with brembo brakes?
Can't find any online anywhere.


Thanks!

Hi BlackKat,

I recently purchased excellent OE-quality Mintex pads for the Brembo calipers on our '04 XJR from Coventry West (Coventry West - Jaguar and Land Rover Parts), but I would assume that SNG Barratt, Welsh Enterprises and other independent Jag parts specialists will carry quality pads for our cars.

You use the term "hardware," though - do you mean rotors or calipers rather than pads? I'm sure CW and the others can supply rotors - not sure about calipers.

You might use the forum search function to see if you can find posts about a brand of pads that supposedly leaves less dust on the wheels. I generally prefer softer pads that provide great braking and wear out faster than the rotor and I don't mind cleaning the dust, but others seem to be happy with the lower-dust pads.

Cheers,

Don

Thanks 34by151 but I don't need pads I already have a set of Akebonos. Just need the actual hardware for the pads.


Below is a link of what I need except this one fits xj8. I have xjr with brembo brakes.

By the way last year I did a front rotor and pad replacement. Just ready to do the rears now. See thread below.

Not sure what that is but it looks like piston seals and pad backing plates

Backing plates should come wit the pads
you don't need to rebuild the calipers unless they are leaking

If you do check out Brake Rotors Brake Discs Drilled Slotted Rotors

Most of us just clean and re-use those guide pins and pin-clips, so unless yours are damaged you shouldn't have to purchase them. BTW, on our Brembos the guide pins do not have those rubber gaiters.

EPC shows the part number for the guide pin/clip kit is C2C21785 and Jaguar list price is $182.25 (I kid you not!). I just tried to look up real-world prices at jaguarmerriamparts.com and gaudinjaguarparts.com but both of their systems are currently down - I assume Jaguar must be updating their systems.

Cheers,

Don

I believe the hardware has been exhausted on my rear brakes. Specifically the driver side. Once my breaks get hot a loud squeak comes from the rear driver side while turning right. The squeak varies on brake pressure applied. I've check the rotors and pads and seem good. The pads are a year old and I had the squeak prior to installing them. There is no play in the wheel as well. I would to get new hardware but don't want to get jaguar prices. I was able to get the hardware for the fronts no problem when I did my install last year. But just can't find any for the rears.
Is it possible that the rear hardware for the XJ8 fit the brembo XJR?

I doubt you need new pin set as bad pis would not stay in
check the clip under the pins has tension on the pads

Also when you installed the pads did you install backing plates (shims)

Generally you would get at rattle when not under brake force, not when you apply the brakes

Check the rotor thickness, all the bolts are tight and clean all the calipers

The pin set for the rear caliper is C2C21783 and C2C21784 for the electric park brake

Before purchasing these I would swap the pin sets left to right and see if the fault changes sides, I doubt it will

BTW R1 have the pin set at a fraction of the OEM cost

Cheers
