Yes You Can. It Has Been Done. Good Luck Finding A Donor. Or You Could Just Paint. Next Time Use The Search Function, As This Has Been Talked About Many Times.

Oh, Please Stop Capitalizing The Begining Letter Of Every Word.

Have you done the swap?,I can get a brand new set in the box,I checked the post,However, Most say they heard of someone doing it or have a picture of someone elses jeep SRT8 that thought that it could be done.

I have done it, as have many others, the charger calipers are identical to the jeeps other than color. Here's a pic of mine:

I have the Rotex gold kevlar pads along with the rotors. That's a picture of my wheel after a week without a wash, so you can see, dust is no longer a problem.

No problem, always glad to help, and thanks.

I did the rotors and calipers awhile ago, but I believe I paid like $800-850 for all 4 calipers. I have no clue what the part number is, I just called my guy and asked for a set of charger calipers.

I think that was for a pair, not a full set of 4.

I know the owner of one of the larger repair shops in Chicago, so for OEM stuff like the calipers I just call him. I bought the rotors for brakeworld.com but watch yourself as they sent me two left rears and wouldn't exchange.

Much Respect,

I have a set of these rotors, should go on the Jeep this week. I ordered these because I'd rather order 4 new rotors than give brakeworld anymore of my money for the proper left rotor. If these turn out ok, I'll have the Disc Italias up for sale.
