Built for confident, controlled stops, the Akebono ProACT ACT966 front brake pad set combines ultra-premium ceramic formulations with engineering aimed at noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) control. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2003-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 (also cataloged as the 2003-2005 Ram 1500) and the 2003-2006 Dodge Durango. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

  • OE-validated ceramic formulations: Each pad uses an OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulation.
  • Precision-cut pressure plates: The pressure plates are precision-cut as part of the ProACT design.
  • Engineered chamfers and slots: The chamfers and slots are scientifically engineered for braking performance and NVH control.
  • Akebono know-how: Akebono Brake Corporation originated ceramic brake technology and is an original equipment brand on many vehicle models. It focuses on NVH analysis and control and runs technical and R&D centers in Japan, the United States and France.

As a front disc brake pad set, the ACT966 presses against the rotor when the brakes are applied, creating the friction that slows the vehicle. If worn pads are behind squealing, grinding or longer stops, these Akebono ProACT ultra premium ceramic brake pads are a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. Replacing the pads on both sides of the axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking.

The ACT966 is listed as a front pad set for the 2003-2005 Dodge Ram 1500 (also cataloged as the 2003-2005 Ram 1500) and the 2003-2006 Dodge Durango. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.

What sets Akebono ProACT ceramic pads apart?

They use OE-validated, application-specific ceramic formulations with precision-cut pressure plates and engineered chamfers and slots. The design targets braking performance and NVH control.

What does NVH control mean for brake pads?

NVH stands for noise, vibration and harshness. The chamfers and slots on ProACT pads are engineered to help control these during braking.

What are signs my brake pads may need replacing?

Common signs include squealing or grinding when braking, longer stopping distances, or pads worn thin on inspection. Have the brakes checked to confirm the cause before replacing parts.

Should I replace the pads on both front wheels at the same time?

Yes, replacing the pads on both sides of the axle together is recommended for even, balanced braking. Inspect the rotors and follow the vehicle service information during installation.
