    Howdy! I’m Zac, owner of the Vannonball racevan and known idiot. A man, a Caravan, a bold plan to Lemons race across America - Hagerty Media I have mostly tried to keep the van stock, because I’m more likely to make things worse than better, introduce more points of failure than eliminate...

  4. 2nd Generation Chrysler Minivans: 1991-1995
    Reading on the bendix systems in these vans, Which as far as my knowledge goes was only used up until 1993 (This first 'electronic' system as referred to in my haynes manual). What I'm wondering is, What system replaced this in the 1994-1995 model-year vans? I'm having some trouble with my...

    Hoping to get some guidance on doing a pseudo HD brake upgrade with the 225/65R-16 wheels for my 2012 DGC. Does anyone have part number recommendations for new rotors for the 16” wheels? My front brake pads are newer, with only about 7000 miles on them. What gives!?!? Is this normal? I’ve read...

    Hey folks! I have a 1990 Voyager that needs a new proportioning valve (#4485429AB). The part is discontinued. Wondering if anyone has found any work around - for proper rear brake function - they won't bleed properly. Thanks for the help!

    I'm planning to replace my rear brakes and rotors tomorrow of a 2014 Dodge Caravan SE, but got stuck today on trying to figure out a safe way to jack the rear up. I have a 3 ton floor jack that I got at Harbor Freight that jacks up to 19", and standard 3-ton (combined) jack stands. I did...

    Trying to search the forum for the generally regarded "best" option to replace the pads and rotors on my 2013 GC with the HD Brakes. Rock Auto Has Centric, Raybestos and Powerstop. My wife is the daily driver (who is maddeningly has 2 modes: accelerating or stopping) But the big concern is the...

    I have a 2010 Town and Country, 4.0L SFI SOHC 6cyl, ~100,000 miles. Periodically, the right front brake will seem to drag while at highway speeds. It does overheat (to the point of smoking), and requires you to stop the vehicle and let it cool down. It will return to normal and not repeat the...

  12. Items Wanted
    My steering knuckle has some serious impressions from my brake pads and it is sticking. My caliper also doesn't line up very well. I believe there may have been some warping. If anyone has a decent steering knuckle that will fit my 1998, please let me know. If you have a pair in good shape I'd...

    I have a 2012 T0wn and country (bought December 2011). Looking to replace the brakes I see there are multiple brake configurations. I attached a picture of my brakes (well the housing, I didn't want to pull them off without replacement parts on hand). From these can you help me identify if I...

    Hi all, for a 2000 Dodge Grand Caravan (G motor if it matters) with 238,000 miles: Can't find this anywhere by searching forum or Google, was on a long trip from CA to Utah using cruise control. I tried to brake and the brake pedal was physically stuck! Cruise control did not disengage. This...
  15. 3rd Generation Chrysler Minivans: 1996-2000
    Rear caliper is locked on 98 T&C Lxi (3rd gen) . My mechanic says I could tow it to him - but said replacing the whole shooting match is the way to go - the parts for the calipers, shoes, pads, bolts and boots were about $100. Is there a good guide somewhere? I looked thru the stickies and...

    My husband changed the reservoir in our daughters 07 Town and Counrty, he doesn't know if he knocked something loose because she left for work this morning and had no brakes. Now, usually my husband does a test drive after all of his mechanic work but didn't do it last night. Is there some kind...
  17. 4th Generation Chrysler Minivans: 2001-2007
    Hi there, I have a 2004 anniversary edition grand caravan. When changing the front brake pads, do I need to open the bleeder valve before pushing the pistons back in to prevent damage to the ABS hydraulic controller? I have heard that it is fine to not open the bleeder valve, and just unscrew...

    Lived a whole life of it it could happen, it would happen and usually at the most inopportune time, so I moved to a city that fit. Murphy, Texas. I work for a famous copier company that used Grand Caravans as service vehicles. After running the tires off the previous one I decided to take care...

    The outboard pads have a long metal tab with a hook at the end attached to brake pads. Does this hook rest above or below where the pad meets the caliper. I find photos online showing both options. Does it matter? I am currently trying one above and the other below contact area. Please advise.
