2019-2023 Ram 1500 DT Rear Ceramic Brake Pads Set with Hardware - A-Premium D2169

A-Premium D2169 rear ceramic brake pad set for the 2019-2023 Ram 1500 DT — the new-body Ram 1500 with coil-sprung rear suspension and redesigned rear brake system. Ceramic pads with wear indicators, mounting hardware, and high-temperature brake grease all included.

Important: this is for the NEW-BODY DT Ram 1500, not the 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic (which uses legacy DS-body brakes). Visual difference: DT has larger grille, coil-sprung rear suspension, and different rear brake caliper design. Full brake parts collection for matching front pads, rotors, and rear rotors.

Why Ceramic on a Ram 1500 DT

• Low dust — wheels stay visibly cleaner between washes, especially the big polished wheels common on Laramie / Limited trims
• Quiet stops — MTF602 formula does not deposit metal on the rotor face like semi-metallic pads, minimizing squeal
• Leaf Mark low-copper certified — meets California and Washington state 2025 copper-content laws
• Wear indicators built in — audible warning when pads reach 3 mm before rotor damage occurs
• Cost effective vs OE dealer — the full rear axle pad set at less than a single dealer pad

Install Notes

• Torque rear caliper bracket bolts per Ram 1500 service spec (typically 22 lb-ft with retorque)
• Apply included high-temp brake grease to the pad backing plate + slider pin contact points - not the pad face
• Retract the rear caliper piston with a brake caliper wind-back tool (the DT rear uses a threaded piston, not straight push-in)
• Bed ceramic pads properly: 8-10 medium stops from 40 to 10 mph, then 2-3 harder stops from 60 to 15 mph, then cool without holding the pedal at a light
• Replace both left and right pads at the same time — never mix new with old
