Question Pre 2000 Brake Caliper Swap?

Will the better dual piston brake caliper from the 2000+ 2nd Gen Ram bolt direclty on my 98? I know the rotor is larger, so would all of it just fit/bolt on?

I have no idea about the interchangeability, but have you tried looking at some performance calipers / rotors? I have no idea at how much youre lookin at as for cost, though, if thats what you had in mind.

Yes, I found EGR Oversided Caliper kit, and thats what lead me to look in to getting 2000+ calipers since they are about $30 or so a pop. http://www.pavementsucks.com/showcase/bigcaliper.php

Edit: the kit they used in that link cost about $875. So... you can see why I looking in to this route.
