Welcome to the forum.
That isn't a lot of info to go off of, but it kinda sounds like an issue with the ABS.
Are you getting any warning lights?
How do the brakes feel the rest of the time?
Any pulling to one side or the other? Does the ABS light come on before you start, and then go out a few seconds after the truck has started?
What are the road conditions when this is happening (Ice, rain, dry)?
Does the pedal stay down until you are completely stopped?
What is the mileage on the truck?
How long has it been doing this, and what did the brakes feel like before?
When was the last time the brakes were serviced?


In the future, it helps a lot if you give us alllll the details, so we can figure things out. Since we're working over the internet, you have to be the eyes and ears for every little detail.

front cv axle seal replacement

I just replaced the cv axle on the driver side along with the seal of course.but when i get to the passenger side seal its a real pain to get in. Im either bending or damaging the new seal when im trying to put it in. Ive tried the big socket deal and the piece of exhaust pipe to fit around it. It just seems that the seal does not hold up under much force. Does anyone have a solution to this problem. My email is dlapait58@gmail.com if that suites anyone better thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

Which is it? A brake problem or an axle seal problem?
