What This Brake Kit Helps Address

• Brake noise caused by worn friction components
• Service needs on Dodge Ramcharger front brake systems
• Front brake refresh on W100 and W150 trucks with the listed configurations

Installation Notes

Confirm rear brake size and hub configuration before ordering, since fitment depends on whether the vehicle has 10-inch or 11-inch rear drums, locking hubs, or non-locking hubs. This kit is for front applications only and is listed as rotor only in the applicable notes, so verify the existing front brake setup against the vehicle-specific fitment rows before installation.
