Getting a bit of vibration when I use the foot brake lately. All fluid levels are ok. Any ideas?:thumbsup:
 






might check the rotors, Orielly auto parts will turn those suckers for a little of nothin
 






Brake problem

It could be the front or the rear. 2 check which one is causing the vib..
Get on a flat , straight part of the road. Get up 2 about 35-40 and slowly push on the emer. brake. If you don't get a vib. , then it is the front as the emer. brake only works on the rear. Caution, don't let the emer. brake stay on longer than 15-20 seconds ! Tommy !
 






I had ALOT of vibration. I really wouldn't call it vibration, but with my foot on the brake slowing down for a red light, my whole navajo would jerk and my foot would go to the floor. Come to find out, the rear driver side only had one pad left and it was laying in the drum and the rear passenger side had a busted "wheel cylinder" and had everything "gunked" up over there. Hope this isn't your prob.
