    On the road right now and rear pads just started grinding on rotors. (My bad)

    Would like to replace them ASAP with OEM Mopar Premium Brake Pads but all that info is back home on the desktop computer.

    Anyone have the part # for them ??

    PLEASE NOTE that I am NOT interested in any other manufacture recommenadtions OR the Mopar VALUE line pads... got 140k out of the originals with zero issues and just gonna go wth them again.

    TIA

    See link. I put in 2009 Ram 3500 as that “should” cover ‘03-‘09 to my knowledge.

    (Maybe this random Internet dude has it right).

    Quote:

    The oem Mopar "Premium" pads on my 2005 lasted 100k miles with NOTHING bad to say about their performance on an 8000# sport truck. When I finally did the brakes (including a complete brake fluid flush) at 100k, I was so impressed with the oem performance and longevity, I simply bought them again. NOTE that I bougth the Mopar "premium" pads and not the Mopar "Value" line pads that most dealership aprts guys will try to sell you. At the same time, I removed the original oem rotors and took them to a reputable and competent brake shop, which mic'd them and let me know they were completely true and were less then 50% worn, which meant that they also had enough meat left for another 100k. I put them back on WITHOUT turning them and 18k later, I am still completely pleased with how they stop the truck with zero noise and minimal dust.

    Of ocurse the Mopar premium pads DO cost almost twice as much as aftermarket "peformance" brake pads, but they also last TWICE as long and you save on labor cost and/or time becuase you do not need to replace them TWICE in the same amount of miles.

    Here are the part numbers for the Mopar Premium pads--

    05093267AA full set--FRONT Disc Brake Pads

    05093257AA full set--REAR Disc Brake Pads

    ALSO here are the torque specs you will need to replace the brake pads.

    Caliper pins 24 ft*lb.

    Caliper adapter mounting screws are 130 ft*lb.

    You’re welcome. I’ll admit I might’ve ignored a non-3rd Gen, but as it was so . . and yours (have seen you do the same a number of times), it was only right to take a few minutes.

    But what’s a desktop computer?
    Is that like a landline?

    All I own is this 2”x4” screen. (Ha!)

    I think Magneti Marelli is the OEM supplier.

    I’ve seen no consistent praise by anyone for anything (I discount the boy toy owners). Even RAYBESTOS gets flamed.

    A quarter-mil and you’d think I could a gone farther.
    But, nooo, it’s a Dodge and the truck falls apart around the engine. (Guess I should worry about the original clutch, huh?)

    Age means mine need replacing. I got my moneys worth and then some.

    As I’ll be following your path, I’ll have someone to blame, right?

    ^^^ Ya even the Hawk pads that Genos Garage carries got a bad review ...LOL.

    I wish that Genos carried the Mopar Premium pads...IME and MANY others, there are NO downsides to them, even at the premium price.

    Well, sorta like those nine-year PANASONIC batteries that wouldn’t die.

    2006 was peak period end.

    Americans are on the way out so charge more for less until they’ve gone.

    I have decided to order the Bosch Quiet Cast BP1096 REAR pads on the assumption that the pad material will be designed to match well with the Bosch #16010170 Quiet Cast Rotors that I also ordered.

    I know that the Bosch Quiet Cast rotors are very well made and respected for our trucks.

    I will try to post my thoughts on them all after the R&R is done.

    What are the thoughts on slotted rotors?

    The benefits of them aren’t realized under most braking situations in a pickup. Day to day braking can have reduced performance because of lower surface area.

    Personally I’d stick to a solid rotor in a pickup.

    Slotted rotors provide additional performance if you do heavy towing. If you do not tow and just drive the truck around, Use standard rotors to save money.

    It's a lot more than just towing heavy, it's routing braking where the rotors are subject to prolonged use and above average heat. At that point slotted rotors help.

    It's very easy to tow heavy and not benefit from slotted rotors if your using the exhaust brakes and have the trailer brakes properly adjusted and actuated.
