Caliper mount bolts

Available only through dodge , or are these available aftermarket? I have a bent one (don't ask how , i don't know) and i am trying to solve a pull in the brakes, i have new flex lines to go on this weekend, both rear breaks have been checked, and i put 2 new calipers on, both are working.

I've never got them for these Dodge trucks, so I can't say for sure, but I have for other vehicles. Go to any parts store and inquire; Wagner, Raybestos, or any of those brands should have them. . .

You should be able to get them at any parts store. I replaced mine recently and found that they are the same part that is used by Chevy. They are quite pricey, around $25 a side.

My local Napa wanted $11 per bolt, priced individually even though they came in a bag that had two sealed inside... AutoZone had them in stock at half the price i.e. sold them by the pair like I think Napa should have been doing also...

Go to Autozone or Advanced Auto. They are like 3.99 each. I had to put a pair on a 5.9 gasser.

NAPA sells them with the calipers, so I would think they have them separate!

Personally, I would replace the calipers, but my discount at NAPA gets me them for about $35 each after the core!

mine (on a 2001) was a standard Class 10.9 Hex Head Capscrew size M8-1.25 x 70MM

the local parts store had them, not listed as a part, just with the "nuts and bolts".....

BE SURE that you get the 10.9 class, that is a "grade" of the bolt and you don't want a lower grade...

The caliper mounting bolts are the sliders, a special bolt.
Don't think you'll find them with regular bolts at cheap prices.

Thanks for the thoughts Chris , i already replaced both calipers , that's how i noticed the bent bolt , i was in too big of a hurry at that point to replace it , and i parked my truck to go out west shortly after that.
