Brakes on my 99 Dodge Ram Cummins

Hey all,

Just wondering if any of you have a similar vintage truck (99 Dodge Ram 2500 Turbo Diesel).

I knew when I bought this truck new that they had sub-standard brakes. But REALLY had no idea just how often I'd be changing them!!!

Question is this- Have any of you found a good aftermarket braking system (that will work on the 3/4 ton Dodge)? I'm coming up empty (I've found companies that make stuff for the 1/2 ton trucks, but not the 3/4 or 1 ton). What I'm looking for are different calipers and/or rotors. I get (maybe) 20K miles out of a set of pads. Just seems like there must be something out there...

Thanks, Jeff
