Product Details
Nugeon 97-17698B is a remanufactured disc brake caliper engineered around the original hydraulic layout for the 2005-2006 Dodge Ram 1500, front left. The cast iron housing, four-piston design, and 57 mm phenolic piston construction support stable brake pressure transfer, while the rust-preventative coating helps protect the caliper body during service. The included bleeder screw and installation hardware package simplify brake system service on this Ram 1500 application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286) for the same application.
Common Repair Uses
- Restores brake hydraulic function when the original caliper is sticking or seized
- Addresses fluid leakage at the caliper body or inlet connection
- Helps correct uneven braking caused by worn internal seals or piston wear
- Replaces a corroded caliper housing on a serviceable brake system
Installation Notes
Fits 2005-2006 Dodge Ram 1500, front left. Verify inlet thread size, bleeder thread size, and banjo bolt connection before installation. Transfer or replace brake pads as needed based on wear condition, and bleed the brake system after installation to remove air from the hydraulic circuit.
