ive read and searched about changing my brake calipers to the 07's, and some guys said they have done them, im just wondering if they bolt right up and if they use the same pads?
since i had my truck i noticed the brakes were always soft and spongy, but thought that was normal. well i did a search about it and apparntly the older gen 3 rams brake calipers are crap. a couple guys said they swapped out to the 07's and it was night and day. and now that im due for a brake job im wondering do i just get new pads/rotors, or do i get new pads/rotors and a set of calipers from a 07? i can get them for 110 a set so its not terrible.. just wondering if the bolt right on. and i looked and the pads are different, so i dont want to replace my oem pads and then decide that my brakes still suck and then decide to get new calipers cause then im eating $55 from the new pads.
my 03 never really had a "spongy" brake problem, and when i had to replace my calipers i just got the replacement that they had for it at oriellys and still dont have a problem with them
