RAM Ram 2500 2019-present Brakes Specifications

Yes, these brakes are designed to be compatible with all 2019-Present Ram 2500 models, including both diesel and gasoline engine variants. They meet OEM specifications and are engineered to fit the standard brake system configurations for these vehicles. Always verify the exact model and year of your truck before purchase to ensure compatibility.

For optimal performance, inspect the brake pads, rotors, and calipers every 12,000 miles or annually. Replace brake pads when they wear down to 3mm or less. Rotors should be checked for warping or thinning and replaced as needed. Brake fluid should be flushed and replaced every 30,000 miles or as specified in your owner’s manual.

To replace the brake pads, first, lift the vehicle and remove the wheels. Use a wrench to remove the caliper bolts and slide the caliper off the rotor. Remove the old brake pads and compress the caliper piston using a C-clamp. Install the new pads, reassemble the caliper, and torque the bolts to the manufacturer’s specifications. Finally, reinstall the wheels and test the brakes.

Squeaking or grinding noises often indicate worn brake pads or damaged rotors. Inspect the brake pads for wear and replace them if they are below 3mm thick. Check the rotors for scoring or warping and replace or resurface them as needed. Ensure all components are properly lubricated and free of debris to prevent further noise.

To enhance braking performance, consider upgrading to high-performance brake pads and drilled/slotted rotors. Ensure proper bedding of new brake components by following the manufacturer’s instructions. Regularly inspect and maintain the brake system, including fluid levels and caliper function. Avoid overloading the vehicle, as excess weight can strain the braking system.
