2013 Ram 2500 Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing brake pads and rotors together for a 2013 Ram 2500 is often the most reliable and cost-effective approach. When you put new pads on worn rotors, the initial stopping feel can be acceptable, but uneven or glazed rotor surfaces will shorten pad life and can lead to vibration, noise, and reduced braking performance—especially under heavy loads or towing. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise, every brake job begins with a thorough inspection: we measure pad thickness, check rotor runout, and evaluate calipers and hardware. If rotors are within spec and properly resurfaced, we’ll explain the benefits of leaving them; when replacement is the safer option we’ll provide a clear estimate and show you the difference. Our technicians use OEM-spec parts and calibrated tools so the braking system performs as designed, preserving safety and resale value. Combining pad and rotor service now prevents repeated labor costs later and delivers consistent braking, which is especially important for the heavy-duty duties a Ram 2500 performs. To get started, schedule service and review available service specials to maximize your savings.
