Hi. I had severe brake fluid loss at the rear driver's side wheel, (I assume there was a bad caliper seal), & was refilling the reservoir 2-3 times a day 'til I had time/money to resolve the issue properly.
Like a dumb-ass, I grabbed a gollon sized jug of power steering fluid off of the shelf at auto zone as it's right next to the brake fluid I'd previously bought (& in an identical looking jug). I was in a hurry & simply didn't look at the label. Anyway, needless to say, I had brake FAILURE and had an accident. So, besides needing some front end body parts, I want to replace the brake system as well. A local area guy is parting out a '97 Ram 1500 on Craigslist, & I wonder if that brake system is the same as the one on my '99 Ram 2500. And, if not, which parts of the system are the same or different from mine?[email protected]
