How the job goes

1. Loosen the lug nuts, raise the truck, support it on jack stands, and remove the wheels.
2. Remove the caliper bolts and lift the caliper off. Hang it with wire; don't let it hang by the hose.
3. Remove the old pads and clips. Clean the bracket where the clips sit.
4. Install the new clips (from the kit) and pads, with any wear indicator in the same position as the old one.
5. Push the caliper piston back slowly, watching that the brake fluid reservoir doesn't overflow.
6. Reinstall the caliper and wheels, pump the pedal until it's firm before you drive, then bed in the new pads.

Before you order

• Confirm caliper and lug nut torque in a service manual for your truck.
• Check rotor thickness and condition; worn or scored rotors should be replaced or resurfaced with new pads.
• Fits the 2013–2018 Ram 1500 (DS). The 2019+ redesigned Ram 1500 uses different brakes; 2019+ "Classic" models aren't covered here yet.
