Brake Pads
Easy question for almost anyone who has had the front wheels off...
Do the brake pads have squeal tabs on them??? My wrangler didn't and the only way to tell when your brakes needed replacing was to take the wheel off and look or feel the grinding of the rotors... anyone know?

Ya, I've never seen a pair without em, the first thing I do is bend those tabs till they breajk off. I keep a visual check of my pads routinely, the tabs are usually to far in and can rut a rotor fast. Especially if you are in a position not to get to them at that moment.
