The sliders
I take it that you are referring to the anchor bolts for the caliper. yes they came greased out of the box. The rear brakes are cold, don't know yet if they are working or not. Just bought new front hoses, if they don't fix it I'll change the pour portioning valve next. Do you know of any online parts store for Ram 1500. So far the auto parts stores say pour portioning valve is a dealer item.
Thank you for helping

On the top and bottom of the caliper were it slides in, so you can bolt it up you will notice it has a flat mating surface, you need to grease this real good or calipers are not able to slide left to right and could cause dragging brakes.
Easy way to check if this is your problem is to take pads off and see if one side has more wear than the other(inside vs outside pad)

Maybe here for parts> http://dodgeparts.mopar.com/dodge/oem-dodge-parts.html
It sounds like you're rear brakes are barely working (or not working at all)
I'd put the rear on jack stands and turn wheels and have someone step on brake pedal to be sure, May just be out of adjustment..
If ABS wasn't working on it (and light is burned out) then the rears would be locking up with hard breaking

I bumped it because I knew there were people here who could answer it, and even though it was less than 24 hours old, we had a busy day the day the OP posted it, and it was all the way on the third page.
I know some people don't look past the first page, so I bumped it.
