This line is engineered to meet OEM specifications for fit and function, offering a cost-effective alternative to new calipers while maintaining safety and durability standards. The 99-17701B caliper is part of this line, ensuring compatibility with Dodge Ram 3500 brake hydraulics systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Description and Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake caliper is constructed from durable cast iron, providing strength and heat resistance required for heavy-duty braking applications. The caliper features two phenolic pistons, which help reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid, minimizing the risk of brake fade. The included bleeder screw (3\/8-24 x 1) allows for efficient brake fluid bleeding during installation or maintenance. Dust boots protect the piston area from contaminants, extending the caliper's service life. The caliper bracket (cast number 135442) and housing (cast numbers 13544401, 51) ensure proper alignment and secure mounting on the Dodge Ram 3500.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Applications and Common Issues Addressed\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for worn or leaking disc brake calipers on Dodge Ram 3500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolves uneven brake pad wear caused by caliper slide or piston failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses brake fluid leaks from damaged or corroded caliper components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves braking performance by restoring proper piston function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates brake drag due to seized caliper slides or pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the Nugeon 99-17701B caliper on a Dodge Ram 3500, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air from the lines. Verify that the bracket and caliper slides are securely mounted and lubricated to allow smooth caliper movement. Use the banjo bolt inlet fitting with the correct copper crush washers to prevent leaks. Inspect dust boots for proper seating to protect pistons from dirt and moisture.
