Reviews for OMIX Front Brake Caliper for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK and 08-12 Liberty KK
Good
This brake caliper fit and works as it should. Much better than the remanufactured calipers from big box stores.
so far this caliper is working great.no more hang ups
These calipers are a great factory style replacement. I had braking issues and had tried bleeding, re-bleeding, pads, more bleeding, different lines, replaced the calipers and it did the trick. someone else might have been able to service my calipers, but that's not my cup of tea. My only complaint was the passenger side did not include brake pad shims like the drivers side did. The Passenger side also did not include the rubber cap for the bleeder valve. That is my only reason for the 4 star.

made in china and has a plastic piston :(
Replaced both front calipers, had to modify new pads to fit inside both calipers. The piston side of the caliper appears to be molded too wide. One caliper came with all new hardware, the other looked to be a return(did not include any hardware, box excessively taped shut)
I was disappointed in the quality of this project and I seriously considered returning it, however, with the help of a hand grinder, I made it work. The problem was in the casting of the part which did not allow for clearance of the brake pad on the piston side of the caliper. I had to grind down two spots on the pad and also the caliper to obtain clearance. I tried two different brands of pads, both with the same result so I concluded the caliper was not manufactured to Jeep specs. Very disappointing. I will be very hesitant to purchase OMIX products in the future.
