Got mine from summit racing dot com I think they are made by "EARLS". They sent me the one for the center in the front both front lines and the one for the center in the back and it was a super easy install.

Did it help your brakes any as far as firm pedal and a little quicker stops?

I put them in my '99. They definitely firmed up the pedal,but did not reduce braking distance. They were EGR's. The only solution to enhanced braking was going to my '07.

Yes it did. For the price of the kit and the time it took I would suggest it to everyone. I noticed it right away. Now I just need to do something with my leaking master cyl top.

Summit part number EAR-28H110ERL
Hyperfirm, Dodge Pickup/SUV kit

When I ordered mine I had to wait because Summit orders them from EARL when you order them from summit. Total Price 99.70 and well worth it.
