Does anyone have a recommendation for replacement front calipers, other than Mopar? I'm thinking of ordering a name brand from J.C.Whitney.

Any parts store will have them for cheap, no need to order online and have to pay for shipping. Try to stick with a name brand like Raybestos or Bindex. Don't forget to mount them with the bleeder screw pointing up.

^ X2! If you don't whoever is pumping the brake to bleed the system WILL eventually commit suicide.

1. Are ceramic pads worth the money?
2. What color should I paint my new calipers?
