EBC RP-1 Front Brake Kit 2pc Floating Rotors

2018–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee 6.2L Trackhawk / 2021–2026 Dodge Durango 6.2L Hellcat

Part #: S29KF1027

The EBC RP-1 Front Brake Kit features high-performance 2-piece floating rotors engineered specifically for the demanding applications of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk (2018–2021) and Dodge Durango Hellcat (2021–2026). Designed for enthusiasts who require exceptional braking performance both on the street and track, this kit delivers superior heat management, reduced wear, and enhanced driving dynamics. The RP-1 compound offers a unique balance of strong initial bite, consistent friction at elevated temperatures, and extended pad and rotor life, making it an ideal upgrade for high-powered SUVs.

Whether tackling spirited drives or aggressive track sessions, these rotors provide reliable stopping power while minimizing disc wear and brake fade. Their lightweight construction also contributes to improved vehicle handling by reducing unsprung and rotational mass.

Key Features

Engineered for performance and durability, the EBC RP-1 Front Brake Kit includes:

• 2-piece floating rotor design for improved heat dissipation and reduced warping
• Outer friction rings cast from high carbon G3500 disc alloy for excellent wear resistance
• Patented stainless steel SD-Drive bobbins allowing independent rotor ring movement
• Anti-rattle clips on each bobbin for silent operation
• 48 curved cooling vanes per rotor to maximize airflow and thermal management
• Handed rotors optimized for left and right side installation
• Exceptional low disc wear compared to other race materials
• Consistent friction coefficient of 0.45 mu maintained up to and beyond 750°C operating temperature
• Weight savings over OEM rotors, reducing unsprung and rotational mass
• Serviceable design allowing replacement of friction rings without changing the hub

Construction & Design

The EBC RP-1 rotors are precision-engineered using premium materials to withstand the rigors of high-performance driving. The outer rings are crafted from a high carbon G3500 alloy, known for its superior wear resistance and crack prevention, even under extreme track conditions. The 2-piece floating design separates the friction ring from the central hub, connected via stainless steel SD-Drive bobbins that allow the rotor to expand and contract independently, significantly reducing stress and the risk of warping.

Each bobbin is equipped with an anti-rattle clip, ensuring quiet operation without compromising performance. The rotors feature 48 curved vanes that promote efficient heat dissipation, maintaining optimal braking temperatures and preventing fade during intense use. This thoughtful engineering results in a robust, long-lasting rotor that performs reliably in both street and track environments.

Performance & Sound

The RP-1 compound used in this brake kit is designed to provide a smooth and progressive friction curve, starting at a moderate 100°C with a friction coefficient of 0.45 mu that remains stable through the upper working temperature range of 750°C and beyond. This ensures consistent braking performance without sudden grab or fade. The floating rotor design and anti-rattle clips contribute to a quiet braking experience, eliminating common noises associated with high-performance brake systems.

Installation & Fitment

This brake kit is a direct fit upgrade for the 2018–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and 2021–2026 Dodge Durango Hellcat equipped with 6.2L engines. Installation requires no modifications, as the rotors are designed to match OEM specifications for bolt pattern and dimensions. The 2-piece design also allows for easier future maintenance, as the friction rings can be replaced independently of the hub, reducing long-term service costs.

What’s Included

• Two 2-piece floating front brake rotors (left and right handed)
• Stainless steel SD-Drive bobbins with anti-rattle clips
• Installation hardware as required

Ideal For

This EBC RP-1 Front Brake Kit is ideal for performance enthusiasts and track day drivers who demand superior braking reliability and longevity from their Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk or Dodge Durango Hellcat. It suits those seeking a balance between street-friendly operation and race-capable durability, with reduced rotor wear and enhanced heat management for aggressive driving conditions.
