Overview
The Baer Brakes 4141022MG is a front Extreme Plus brake system in Monster Green for Dodge and Ram 1500 trucks. It combines a 1-piece Monoblock 6-piston, 6S caliper with a 15 inch two-piece slotted, drilled and zinc-plated rotor, sold together as one kit under a single part number.
It fits the 2002–2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011–2018 Ram 1500 and 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic, including the 19-24 Classic Body. The caliper is CNC machined from 2618 aluminum forging. The grade is Performance.
Key features
- 1-piece Monoblock caliper with 6 pistons, designated 6S, manufactured in Phoenix, Az
- CNC machined from US-sourced 2618 aluminum forging with a powder coated finish
- Stainless steel pistons, abutments and noise suppression clips
- Staggered pistons designed to minimize uneven pad wear
- Dual seals that guard against dust, weather and pressure
- 2-piece slotted, drilled, zinc-plated rotor with a billet aluminum hat
Choosing pads and wheels
Big-brake truck kits change more than stopping power. A larger caliper and rotor add weight to the front corners, so the wheel bearings, ball joints and steering components see different loads than stock. Brake fluid also matters more with a heavier clamping setup, since it works hard during repeated stops on long grades. Flushing fluid on a regular schedule and checking the hard lines for chafing helps keep the system predictable.
Pad choice goes hand in hand with a rotor change. Pads should be matched to the rotor face and to the way the truck is driven, whether that is mostly highway commuting or steep trail descents. Pads that run too hot can glaze a slotted rotor, so bedding them in properly after installation is worth the time. Keep the wheel lug torque and caliper bracket bolts on the list for re-checks after the first few drives.
- Inspect the rotor face for heat cracks or lipping at each pad change
- Re-check caliper bolts after the first short drive
- Clean slots and drill holes of debris during tire rotations
- Replace pads before they wear down to the backing plate
- Watch for pulling or pedal pulsation as signs of uneven wear

Vehicle fitment
It fits the 2002–2010 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011–2018 Ram 1500 and 2019–2024 Ram 1500 Classic. The application covers Dodge/Ram 1500 trucks 02-25.
The list covers Ram 1500 models only, so Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty trucks are not included. Confirm your vehicle’s year, model and trim before ordering.
Installation notes
Rotors arrive pre-assembled with NAS high grade stainless hardware, and all mounting brackets and hardware are included. The kit re-uses the factory hoses. Because wheel styles vary, compare the N118U template with your wheel before mounting. The minimum wheel diameter is 19.0 inch.
Brake work on a truck should be done by someone experienced with disc brake service.
