D2 Brake Recommendation
I don't think there is anything special about what set screw you use as long as it sits flush to the rotor. It's main purpose is to keep the rotor in place when you remove the tires, but I have replaced rotors without using a set screw just because I didn't want to wait to get a new one I stripped getting out and the caliper holds it in place good enough for me. Just have to make sure you torque your wheel back on in the star pattern.
I just ordered the +2 ss brake lines and proline front and rear rotor and pad kit from RN for my 99. Should be in next week and I'll be able to give a review for them by the end of next week hopefully. I know I went cheap going proline rotors and pads, but the PO tore one of the abs sensor lines and then pulled all the lights on the amigos as his "fix". Needless to say I'm not concerned with brake dust on it now and since it's just my weekend backroader no need to get all fancy.

Thanks MadLands!
I have purchased these screws from ACE before for my wife's VAN, they're cheap and work great. Will keep you guys posted.
Good luck on your project, I am hoping to finish mine tomorrow and will report on the Wearever performance.
ditch the screw, you dont need it and they are a PITA. There only purpose is stop the rotor from coming loose on the assembly line. They were originally put on the old Series Land Rovers for the same reason. Save your self the money
Happy Monday All -
I finally finished the brake job yesterday, I skipped the screws as some people suggested and things seem to be normal
Thus far no dust, squeaking or strange behaviors, and it appears to stop when I depress the brake, so I guess it went well.
Thank you all for your help and recommendations.
One to the next project
