I have a somewhat disconcerting noise and "feeling" after coming to a complete stop... It feels as if my rear brakes are releasing a second or 2 AFTER I let off the brake pedal...it makes a bit of a thunk noise and feels like something is releasing...maybe even in a suspension component... I saw someone in the archives had a similar "symptom" but I didn't see any response... Any clues what I should look at first? I know for a fact that my parking brake needs help...it barely holds on and it seems the driver side cable is all mucked up...looks rusted and torn...I am going to be ordering 2 of those (one for each side) and checking the brakes themselves this weekend... Any advice is appreciated!! -- Dave - KC9FYM 85 GL "baby bus" http://fjazzbass.blogspot.com |
