Ram 1500 Brake Caliper
Brake Caliper in Ram 1500, is one of the most significant parts of the disc brake system whose main function is to slow or stop the car, through the use of calipers to press the break pads against the break rotors. In the hydraulic method, when the brake pedal is pressed, it applies force on pistons of caliper and in turn apply force on the brake pads. Ram 1500 models utilize two primary types of Brake Calipers: two major types of dishes namely the fixed and the floating ones. There are Fixed Brake Calipers with pistons used on each side of the rotor which offers better performance but at the same time being more expensive. On the other hand, floating Brake Calipers are those that have a piston on one end so that the caliper in question is capable of being slid across and exert pressure to both sides of the rotor. As with the floating calipers, they are more basic in design but they can stick hence resulting in uniform wear and low efficiency. Proper servicing is critical especially for the Brake Caliper to produce efficient services for the Ram 1500 vehicles.

Ram 1500 Brake Caliper Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to Remove and Install a Disc Brake Caliper on Ram 1500?A: This procedure applies to the front and rear disc brake calipers. To begin, loosen the front or rear wheel lug nuts and raise the vehicle, securing it on jackstands. Block the wheels at the opposite end and remove the front or rear wheel. Next, remove the brake hose-to-caliper banjo bolt and disconnect the brake hose from the caliper. Remember to discard the old sealing washers and plug the brake hose immediately to prevent contaminants and air from entering the brake system. If you are only removing the caliper for access to other components, leave the brake hose connected and suspend the caliper with a length of wire, ensuring it does not hang by the hose. Remove the caliper mounting bolts and detach the caliper from the mounting bracket. When installing, use new sealing washers on each side of the brake hose fitting and tighten the banjo bolt and caliper mounting bolts. Finally, bleed the brake system if the brake hose was disconnected, checking for leaks and testing the brakes before returning the vehicle to normal service.
