hmmm.... 18-4076. I checked online and they call for a different part number... uh oh .

 

Yep, that is wrong, that's for a d100 or 150 older dodge. You want an 184300 or 184299 depending on which side. I assume you are doing the right side?

 

Drivers. I need the 4299.

 

No! You need the 184300 for the left side.

 

Besides that, does it pull to the left only when braking? If it is, I'd have to say the prob is on the right side, could be that one has a froze piston, froze up slides, bad brake hose, or the axle seal is leaking and the pads are getting grease on them.

 

Replaced the caliper today, seems to grab a lil better.

I think it might be something to do with the drums. I'm gonna pull them apart come spring and have a better look... one seems to grab more than the other and the whole truck shifts sideways when you brake.

 

lol... well I heard a funny creaky clicking sound a couple times today, and moreso when I turned a corner. Got home and went over to the pass side, and all I could smell was burning brakes. Looks like I'm doing the right side caliper tomorrow haha. Oh well, a pair of new front calipers should call for some nicer braking :P

 

SO..... I replaced the passenger side caliper, and when I went to bleed it, absolutely no fluid came out!!! I clamped off the brake hose to prevent leaks while I swapped calipers. Its strange though because the pedal gets stiff and everything. I fired up the truck and pumped them a few times, but still nothing... ideas? There shouldn't be any air in the lines.

 

You should not have clamped off the hose. They can collapse by themselves with age, let alone pinching it. Remove the hose and see if you get anything out of the steel line.

 

Haha yeah, I was told they have steel in them after I went ahead and clamped it. I've clamped the ones in my car before with no problems though. The passenger side was the side that never fully released, even before I touched it, so its either the actual steel brake line or the rubber section of it? Brake booster has to be fine... every other corner brakes fine.
