I aggree. There are two different shoes for the years. I think 01 thru 03 had larger ones but not sure.

Price difference are almost double.

I think you should go ask for the shoes that go on a Durango tho.

No problem dude. I do like the sarcasm tho........LOL

The reason I say the larger ones go to the upper years was the fact that the brakes were under build and didn't hold up. In the later years I think the went to the larger shoes to take stress off them because of the worping brake rotor situation.

Make sure you look at em before you buy em. The OEM ones had a problem. Check this out and keep it in mind when you look at em:

Talking

Or you can simply just drop those drums and for a small fee and go with a rotor conversion kit.
They don't cost much at all... lol
