Re: [A/S] Brake Problems
In addition to changing the brake fluid, I would look closely at the
front calipers and hoses. I had the same thing happen on my '87 F350,
and it appeared to be a combination of the calipers not sliding (they
kind of float free on rails), and one caliper not releasing completely,
which meant the front brakes were always a bit engaged, keeping them hot.
FWIW- I went for a *long* time without trailer brakes, and that truck
should be able to stop the truck and trailer easily without fade.
