How Hot?

[Laredo]

Hi, i've got a '98 Grand Cherokee with very low miles (34,000) but the other day after driving i noticed that the right (when sitting in vehicle) side front wheel was very hot, so hot that you could only quickly touch it - the other side was only warm. I'd just done about 250miles. Should i be concerned?

Yes. It sounds like a stuck caliper or piston. See if it's the disc. If so, take the caliper apart (dont loosen the brakeline) and see if the caliper can moove freely over the pins and see if the piston can be pushed into the caliper.

Thanks NIX, i'll check it out.

Had the same problem with mine, more than likely your caliper but it never hurts to make sure the brake line wasn't kinked or damaged.
