I have a 1997 Dodge 1500 ram long bed with 5.2 L 169000 miles. My problem is this I change the brakes about every 3 months, the passenger side wares faster then the driver side by 80% or more. I've changed the calibers with no change. Any help would appreciated.

If you already changed the calipers, you will need new brake hoses, do both sides. Get a good quality pad such as ceramic, the last longer and less prone to squeal. Adjust your rear brakes, and make sure the wheel cylinders, or calipers back there aren't leaking!
