Lookkin at my front wheels. Thers a lot of brake dust aroudn them. Backs theres none. And im aware that the fronts do more braking action. Anyone know of a good way to test the brakes to make sure the rears are working? I notice that when i test drove an 05 it stopped quite a bit nicer than mine

 

My fronts dust up a lot faster than my rears too.
Must be a Dodge thing... my Dakota was even worse.
Here in NJ the state inspection includes a skid pad test of braking.

Now that I think about it, the first time I had my Dakota inspected it failed that test and I had to get the rears adjusted. My CTD is not due for inspection for a while (new vehicles get an exemption for a few years)

 

do they adjust like the older trucks do> lil 20 mph reverse and brake?

 

No, they are disc brakes. No adjustment neccessary(sp). Mine do the same. I also had a Dakota which was worse.

It is normal
