I need front pads soon and I want to use the OE ones
On every site that sells mopar parts, the '05 pads are listed at $150-160, while the '03-04 and '06-08 pads are listed at 90ish !!! (rears are $100 vs $80). They don't give part #'s, so I can't tell why.
The aftermarket ones are usually listed '03 thru '08. I don't get it
Anyone else with an 05 run into this issue ?
Anyone know the mopar part #s for the front pads ?
Thx

I don't think there is a difference. All of the prices you have though seem way high. I got my Autozone "Duralast Gold" front brake pads for around $50 and have a lifetime warranty.

Thx Ram
It didn't make sense to me either.
I ended up buying a set of EBC greenstuff pads
