The different sizes are for the Light Duty vs Heavy Duty brakes. I had to figure it out on my wife's '13 last year. There's visual cues that I don't quite recall at the moment. The other easier distinction (I believe) is wheel size. If it has 16" wheels, they're light duty because the HD brakes won't fit inside the 16's.

Thanks for the info. I know the rim size is 16". Maybe I'll call the dealer to verify.

No problem. I can all but guarantee with 16's you don't have HD brakes.

This should also help you determine it without contacting the dealer. http://forum.chryslerminivan.net/sho...-brakes-or-not
