You have been feed a real line of S**T . Just go to your dealer and have them
pull up the micro fiche on it and see for yourself. I did and its very simple
to see Chrysler does not list them for the 99 4X4's It's NO mystery here,
they are NOT supposed to be there. Only listed as parts on the 99 4X2. As I
said, the reason is dirt and rocks were getting packed between the rotor and
the sheild, so Chrysler took them off the 4X4's.
