Yep. Think I will order tonight. Also looking for the steel braided brake lines, but Rockauto does not show them. Would like to replace those before they cause a problem.

Braided steel lines is the best way to go. They will stiffen those brakes up and make them much quicker responding.

Found them for $100 for the set. Not too bad. Guess that will be the task for this weekend!

i went to the dodge dealership to pick up some friction modifier in my ram charger. every time i go there i swear almost every sales person comes out to look at it. there was one sales person that even said they had never even seen a ram charger before.

Want to see something also funny?
Tell the parts guy you're looking for a part for a 360 engine.
Look at the puzzled look.

Where did you find them for that price? I need to start collecting parts to do my front balljoints/u-joints/axle seals/brake rotors/calipers/pads.

Everytime I do a slow turn on asphalt I can feel the front end jump a little.

I also think my rotors are warped cause the truck pulsates when I hit the brakes.

Time to start dumping money into it again,
