What size are these things? They are not anywhere close to what my old 01 had, actual bolt heads... 1/4'' allen won't fit and that's the biggest I got, just to gauge size. Is it 3/8''?

Jacked up and all ready to go and then...**** i don't have one of those... Put it all back together... ugh

<---- This is me now!

 

Never mind, just gonna buy a hex socket set tomorrow...

 

I think they are 3/8ths... might be 10mm..... I just bought a set. I am sure I will do brakes more than once.

 

3/8ths on a 98. I just checked a brand new one.

 

Thank You Sir! I will pick up a 3/8''

If I would have been paying attention to the haynes manual, I would have read that they changed the brake calipers from 2000-01. And that they are totally different bolts as well.

 

Read the manual? How un-manly of you.

 

I'm surprised they even mention that.

 

Brakes are done... The manual also mentioned, to make sure to remove some brake fluid from master cylinder, which I forgot to do, and while on the second set of brakes, noticed the master cylinder leaking fluid out... Ugh had to clean it all up, but brakes are fine and I will remove some fluid next time.

Thanks Zman and Hey You!

 

Although Im pretty sure you have a 1500, you might want to add that fact to your sig and profile. And I know a 2500 is different, but there might be some helpful info in this thread that applies to both. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...rake-pads.html

 

Thanks, will do
