Just buy the JGC parts and replace yourself.

The SRT8 has Brembos.

It is so new, little parts info exists in the public domain yet. May require a new arm, etc too just to mount the calipers. Who knows. Better yet, just buy caliper covers and call it a day. The brakes on the Gen3s are fine as is anyways. The SRT8 uses the extra stopping power for the extra Horsepower the Durango doesn't have.

Let me know what you guys find out. I'd love to do the Brembos all around, preferably in red. I plan to have more hp than the JGC SRT8, and with the added size, I'll need the stopping power.

Default May have the answer...

Here's a site I used and it would appear that the parts would be interchangeable. Looks like the Brembos are a direct fit for the 2012 Durango 5.7...

Hope it helps!

I doubt its a direct swap I'm sure any number of things would need to be swapped out and or custom caliper mounts fabricated.

I think they should mount up just fine as GC is same platform as durango. I would only wonder what supporting items need to be added to properly supply brakes.

Ive already looked into this and you will need the JGC SRT8's spindles, rotors, calipers and brake lines for the front. I assume the same for the rear.
