Question.
XJ is pulling to the left when I brake. As soon as I let off, it straightens out. I would like to replace calipers only after having tried something else. I came across this thread: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/jee...-83831/index2/. It advises to check caliper slider pins and grease them. Does anyone have a picture of said pins, and / or can tell me where exactly they're located and what I'm looking for? Also, what should I use to grease them? Thanks.

To illustrate:
Behind those two bolts, on the caliper, are two rubber boots. Inside the boots are two steel cylinders that the caliper slides on while engaging/disengaging. These are the slides. They will slide right out of the rubber boots. Grease them with silicone/dielectric grease, and reinstall.
Very simple process.
