This direct-bolt-on kit pairs EBC Greenstuff high-performance brake pads with GD series fine-slotted and dimpled rotors for a street, tow, and track-ready setup that outperforms factory brakes in every measurable way. Whether you are hauling heavy loads down a mountain grade or need confident emergency stopping on the highway, S3KR1244 gives your Ram the braking system it deserves from the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Greenstuff Pads and GD Rotors Work Together\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEBC Greenstuff pads are formulated with a proprietary ceramic and Kevlar fiber compound that generates strong bite from cold, builds heat rapidly, and maintains consistent feel through repeated hard stops. The GD series rotors feature a fine slot and dimple pattern that continuously cleans the pad face, prevents gas and dust buildup, and dramatically reduces rotor warping under sustained braking loads common to towing and steep descents. Every rotor in the S3KR1244 kit is coated in Geomet or Thermic Black anti-corrosion finish that protects the iron casting from rust and preserves the appearance of your wheel wells. EBC applies a brake-in coating to all pads in this kit to speed up the bedding process and get you to full performance faster than uncoated alternatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey

2 pairs Greenstuff pads with USR slotted rotors for a daily-driver-focused upgrade with low dust and quiet operation. Stage 3 uses Yellowstuff pads with GD slotted and dimpled rotors for stronger bite and better heat management, making it the better choice for towing, heavy loads, or drivers who want more aggressive stopping performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill S3KR1244 work on my Ram 2500 with a diesel engine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The S3KR1244 kit is designed for the 8-lug Ram 2500 platform across all engine options including the 6.7L Cummins diesel and the 6.4L HEMI gasoline engine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDo EBC Greenstuff pads squeal or produce a lot of dust?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreenstuff pads can produce slightly more dust than stock pads due to their aggressive compound, but they are significantly cleaner than many competing performance pads. Squealing is minimal when properly bedded using the EBC recommended procedure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the bedding procedure for the S3KR1244 kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEBC recommends completing 20 moderate stops from 40 mph to 10 mph with a two-minute cool-down between each stop. Avoid full panic stops during the first 500 miles. The factory brake-in coating on the Yellowstuff pads accelerates this process compared to uncoated pads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre the GD rotors drilled all the way through or are they dimpled?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGD rotors use a fine-slot and dimple pattern. The dimples do not drill fully through the rotor face, preserving structural integrity while still evacuating gas and debris from the pad contact surface. This eliminates the cracking risk associated with fully drilled rotors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow long do Greenstuff pads typically last on a tow truck or work truck?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eService life depends heavily on usage. Under normal street driving with occasional towing, Greenstuff pads typically outlast stock pads due to the harder compound. For vehicles used in frequent heavy towing or commercial service, budget for inspection at 25,000 to 30,000 miles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Geomet coating on the rotors prevent surface rust completely?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeomet coating significantly slows the formation of surface rust but does not eliminate it entirely under all weather conditions. Light surface rust is normal on iron rotors after rain or overnight exposure and will clean off after a few normal stops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the EBC warranty on S3KR1244 comply with the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. EBC Brakes provides a limited warranty on the S3KR1244 kit that covers defects in material and workmanship under normal use. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, installing aftermarket brake components does not void your vehicle manufacturer warranty unless the dealer can prove the aftermarket parts directly caused the failure being claimed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs this kit compatible with Ram 2500\/3500 trucks that have been leveled or lifted?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the S3KR1244 is a hub and caliper bolt-on kit that replaces pads and rotors only. It is compatible with lifted or leveled Ram trucks as long as the factory brake calipers and hubs are retained.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the EBC S3KR1244 kit requires standard automotive hand tools. Safely lift and support the vehicle, remove all four wheels, and compress the brake caliper pistons before installing new pads. Replace one axle at a time to retain a reference side. Torque all lug nuts to the factory Ram specification for your model year. Complete the EBC bedding procedure described in the FAQ above before towing or performing aggressive stops. If you are not comfortable performing brake work, have a qualified technician install this kit. Brake system integrity is safety-critical.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EBC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45972565622863,"sku":"EBCS3KR1244","price":528.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1062\/7920\/files\/ebc-s3kr1244-greenstuff-brake-kit-ram-2500-3500.png?v=1782505411","url":"https:\/\/www.blackopsautoworks.com\/products\/ebc-stage-3-rear-brake-pad-and-rotor-kit-2019-2025","provider":"Black Ops Auto Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
