Yeah, I just have to look fast, not actually be fast lol

It's cheaper on parts that way too. Lol

Do you have to shave the rear calipers for those rims to fit??

Shave is an understatement

For those of you looking to do this, I highly recommend doing what was done in this thread:

Just to give a little side by side.

Why not just put on the smaller rotor and calipers from a regular ram? No grinding. Just a straight swap.

I thought you said that wasn't a straight swap?

I cant remember. Too much beer between when i was researching and now. I will look it up again and try it. I do know our brake lines front and rear are the same as the regular ram. (Crazy right) but i will try it then post. I read it somewhere.

 

[madmanadam]

That is why I grinded, not knowing smaller rotors/brakes would work. I checked my 95 ram and they are drums in the rear. didnt look any further.

Same body style as our trucks. The caliper bracket is the same i believe. I will double check. It wasn't expensive niether.
