Ok gang, up to 26K miles now on an '03 Club Cab 4x4, 4.7 5spd Stick; and its time to think about brakes for the winter. I pull a fair amount of miles with an enclosed sled trailer. The stock brakes are decent when heated up some, but are damn pathetic when cold or wet. Last winter, it was scary a few times when pulling at very cold temps without warming the brakes up first.
I'm looking at trying slotted and drilled rotors for the front and hopefully for the rear too, along with those EBC 6000 SUV pads.
My Q's are this: I'm having a hard time finding good drilled/slotted aftermarket rotors for the rear, what have you come across?? Also, does anyone know if DR (02+ Ram) calipers are adaptable to a Dakota?? All we need is slightly larger pistons (probably 2-3mm bigger), and that would add some serious stopping power.
Thanks alot for all the help in advance.
