Overview

The PowerStop Evolution Drilled and Slotted (D&S) Rotor is a premium front brake rotor designed specifically for Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator models from 2018 through 2025. Engineered to deliver enhanced braking performance and improved heat dissipation, this rotor is an ideal upgrade for Jeep enthusiasts seeking reliable stopping power under demanding driving conditions. Whether tackling off-road trails or daily driving, these rotors provide consistent, fade-resistant braking performance.

Key Features

PowerStop's Evolution D&S Rotor incorporates several key technologies to maximize brake performance and durability:

• Precision cross-drilled holes for enhanced cooling and heat dissipation during extreme braking conditions
• Rounded slots designed to sweep away brake gases, dust, and moisture, maintaining a clean friction surface
• Silver zinc dichromate plating to resist rust and corrosion, extending rotor life and appearance
• Direct OE fitment for Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator models with 2.0L Turbo, 3.6L V6, 3.0L EcoDiesel, and 6.4L 392 engines
• Durable construction engineered to withstand rigorous off-road and on-road use
• Improved brake cooling reduces the risk of brake fade during heavy use
• Enhanced stopping power and pedal feel for confident braking performance

Construction & Design

The PowerStop Evolution D&S Rotor is crafted from high-quality cast iron, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and wear resistance. The rotor's surface is precision-machined to exact tolerances, ensuring a perfect fit and smooth operation. The cross-drilled holes are strategically placed to maximize airflow and heat dissipation, while the rounded slots help maintain a clean rotor surface by channeling away debris and brake dust.

Additionally, the silver zinc dichromate plating provides a protective barrier against rust and corrosion, which is especially beneficial for vehicles exposed to wet or salty environments. This plating not only preserves the rotor's structural integrity but also maintains a clean, professional appearance over time.

Installation & Fitment

Designed as a direct replacement for the front rotors on select Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator models, the PowerStop Evolution D&S Rotor requires no special tools or modifications for installation. It fits perfectly with the factory brake calipers and hardware, allowing for a straightforward bolt-on upgrade. This makes it an excellent choice for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike.

Compatible with Jeep Wrangler models from 2018 to 2025 equipped with 2.0L Turbo, 3.6L V6, 3.0L EcoDiesel, and 6.4L 392 engines, as well as Jeep Gladiator models from 2020 to 2025 with 3.6L V6 and 3.0L EcoDiesel engines, this rotor ensures precise fitment and reliable performance across multiple powertrain options.
