Overview:
The DBA 5000 XD Series Cross Drilled & Dimpled Front Rotor is engineered to deliver superior braking performance and enhanced cooling for Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander models spanning 2005 through 2021. Designed for enthusiasts seeking a reliable upgrade over factory rotors, this rotor combines advanced surface treatments with a unique pattern to improve heat dissipation and reduce brake fade during spirited driving or heavy-duty use.
Ideal for drivers who demand consistent stopping power and a sporty appearance, the 5000 XD Series rotor offers a balance of performance and durability. Its cross drilled and dimpled design not only aids in venting gases and debris but also adds a distinctive, aggressive look to your vehicle’s braking system.
Key Features:
The DBA 5000 XD Series rotor incorporates several advanced features that enhance braking efficiency and rotor longevity:
- Non-directional Cross Drilled Pattern: Optimizes heat dissipation and gas evacuation for improved brake response.
- Dimpled Surface Design: Increases surface area to aid cooling and reduce brake fade under heavy use.
- XD Finish: An enhanced coating that provides superior corrosion resistance and cooling benefits compared to the standard HD finish.
- Sporty Aesthetics: The combination of cross drilling and dimpling creates a visually aggressive rotor surface that complements performance vehicles.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to strict tolerances for perfect fitment and balanced braking performance.
- Direct Fit Replacement: Designed to bolt on without modification for the specified Jeep models.
- Improved Heat Management: Helps maintain consistent braking performance during extended or aggressive driving.
Construction & Design:
DBA rotors are crafted from premium-grade cast iron, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and durability. The 5000 XD Series features a proprietary cross drilled and dimpled surface that enhances airflow and cooling efficiency. The XD finish is a specialized coating that not only protects against rust and corrosion but also improves heat dissipation beyond the capabilities of the standard HD finish. This combination of materials and surface treatments ensures the rotor maintains structural integrity and performance under demanding conditions.
Each rotor undergoes rigorous quality control and precision machining to ensure consistent thickness, flatness, and balance, which are critical for smooth braking and long service life.
Installation & Fitment:
The DBA 5000 XD Series front rotor is a direct replacement for the front rotors on 2005–2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander models, as well as 2011–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. Installation requires no modifications, making it a straightforward upgrade for enthusiasts and professional installers alike. It is recommended to replace rotors in pairs and to inspect brake pads and hardware during installation to ensure optimal braking system performance.
What's Included:
- One DBA 5000 XD Series Cross Drilled & Dimpled Front Rotor (driver or passenger side)
Ideal For:
This rotor is perfect for Jeep owners who want to enhance their vehicle’s braking performance, especially those who engage in spirited driving, towing, or off-road activities where heat management and brake reliability are critical. It also suits enthusiasts looking to upgrade their brake system with a rotor that offers both functional and aesthetic improvements over OEM components.
