So it made 293K, and I discovered the rear brakes were shot. That's fine and all except I just put them on 16K miles ago. Both sides, calipers weren't sticking but were worn completely out. When I did the rear brakes I put ceramics since I tow with this truck a lot, in excess of a ton on a given day. Did some investigating and asking around, if you slammed on brakes on dirt at 25 MPH, it wouldn't even lock the fronts, or nose dive, I had ONLY rear brakes with minimal fronts.
What I've done to remedy this is the ABS module had some random code, don't remember what it was, I just threw the one off my old V8 donor on it. Bleeding it sucked, but I've got brakes and it does stop really well with the front brakes best I can tell now. Anybody ever seen this before?
