She's been a good truck ninety grand on the speedometer a bit of rust at the bottom pinch welds on both doors and bottom of tailgate. I've been keeping it at bay with some Eastwood stuff.
So some brake history, she on her second set of pads, both rear flexible lines all the steel lines including the ones to the anti skid brake control replaced. Those I bought from the dealer. What happened this spring
I was a expressway speed when traffic a head stopped I hit the brakes and the rear of the truck swung to the left, luckily it allowed be to avoid a collision as I drove off the side of the road. I inspected the
rear brakes and even though the calipers were free I replaced both of them. Fast forward to last week again I was involved in a panic stop and the truck again responded as before. Other than this the
brakes have always worked good. The one thing about these four brakes lines off the anti skid control. I had to special order them and one was longer that the original. Thinking back on it I wonder if somehow
I got these lines in the wrong position? I doubt it as all the fittings were different and I'm sure I replaced them one by one. This work again was done a couple of years before the brake malfunction. As far as the
brake light on the dash it lights up before I start the truck with the key in the run position goes out when started. Any suggestions or help would be gratefully appreciated.
