Hey all:
I have an 80 series that I drive on occasion. When turning and braking at the same time (or just before/after braking) there's a loud noise coming from the truck. It sounds similar to worn down brake pads, but I've just had the brakes done. Tie rods have also been done recently, and...
I have a 97 LX450 with 295K miles. Yesterday morning I was backing out from the driveway and when I pushed brake pedal it became quite hard to push, but I was able to stop. Today the same thing happened when I was about to park the truck. I checked and had to ad a bit of brake fluid, but it...
On a recent trip in our 2020 LC I noticed a vibration in the steering wheel when coming down a mountain pass under moderate braking at +/-80mph. By moderate I mean approaching slower traffic and easing on the brakes to scrub some speed- nothing even close to a panic stop. The 200 is my...
95 LC here. I want to replace everything I can, refresh what I can't. Caliper assemblies and the brake lines that attach to them were replaced a few years ago with Centric rebuilds and new Centric lines. Rotors replaced as well. I now have a new booster and master cylinder sitting on a shelf...
recently installed them, pedal doesn't feel much firmer if at all and still have the same amount of play before they start to bite.
i can occasionally feel the system pulsing when i brake, is this normal?
i went with the stocktech brand.
Hi guys,
It's been awhile since I've been around since a new Sprinter van has been the obsession of my automotive ADD over the last year.
But I'm back...and with a problem!
Background:
When I last left off with my LX, I had performed a brake job (in several stages over a couple of months)...
I'm experiencing an odd pulsing/grabbing when I slowly come to a stop. Like driving around a crowded parking lot. I don't feel it if I'm going faster than 15mph, but if I brake like you would when approaching a stop light, firmly at first and then as needed to come to a slow stop, it feels...
Long time 80 owner. I just acquired a free 2000 LX470 from my wife's uncle. I was driving it from Houston back home to CO. I had 3 instances on the highway, mostly going downhill at about 70mph just as my foot was grazing the brake pedal. The VSC light flashed, beeping, severe braking, engine...
I have a built fzj with added center diff lock button. I have searched the forums for a easy how to disable ABS, so I can do the reverse. Ideally I'd like to potentially have a switch so I can enable disable ABS while in Awd, but for now I just want to test it out.
Why?
I have read many...
