Need 1997 Ram 1500 brake pads, rotors, or drums? 1997 is a 2nd-gen Ram 1500 (1994–2001). This page is only that pickup. It is not Ram 2500/3500, and it is not a van.
4×2 vs 4×4 changes the front rotor diameter on this generation. Rear brakes are drums on the 1500 pickup. A growl or pedal pulsation is usually a rotor. A squeal on the first stop is often glazed pads or missing hardware clips.

These Wagner numbers come from the WC900 1995–2019 catalog (Federal-Mogul 2019), Dodge Ram 1500 rows whose year range covers 97 (1997). Confirm 2WD/4WD and brake package before ordering. Superscript footnotes on the pad/rotor columns (1 hardware in the box, 2 OE semi-metallic, 4 optional ceramic, 8 E-coat, 9 OE abutment clips) are not part of the SKU.
Do not use later 3rd-gen DR or 4th-gen DS disc numbers, Ram 2500 pads, or van/wagon parts on this 1500 pickup.
