I assume that you mean "light duty" ram 3/4 ton units?

Which pads are you running?

Thanks

Thanks for that info. Will I need the ABS sensors too or was that just an upgrade you wanted to do at the same time?

I did them because I had ABS & brake lights 'on'... the rear was the issue, but at their age and miles, I was changing them all anyway.

You're just looking for a braking efficiency upgrade... If you don't have ABS issues, they don't have to be changed.

Thanks again, that's what I thought.
And, also thanks for the part numbers. I got parts ordered today and should be doing this soon (good thing I have a garage to do the work in).
