Could be the master cylinder has gone, if you took the brake line off then you will have to bleed the brake system and that should fix it, you also need to backup and press the brakes so that the pads and piston seat into place but just go slowly and not very far, 10 feet maybe.

I have a dodge ram 1500 and yr 2007 and it sqeals only when breaking and it is not my brake pads

When were your pads replaced last? Aftermarket semi-metallic pads are all different. You could four sets of pads by the same manufacturer and three sets are fine and the forth set will squeal all of the time. If the brakes only make noise when you are applying pressure that is about all it could be. Your pads probably look new and still squeal. Try having your rotors resurfaced or scuffed up and see if that helps!

Just started hearing a clicking noise coming from the rear of my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500....5.7 V-8 Hemi.....Checked both rear brake, and that doesnt seem to be the problem...From some research, I think it...

Could this clicking sound be coming from the engine area? Hemi's are known for breaking exhaust manifold bolts and making a clicking sound which is a exhaust leak..

I am reading that the dodge ram 1500 hemi takes 16 plugs,is this true and how do you get the back plug out that is under the break housing area

there are indeed 16 plugs in the hemi engine. 8 of which are under the 8 ignition coils the other 8 are under the wires coming from the coils. You may have to remove some air filter tubing or engine covers to remove the coils, wires and plugs. good luck
