Those 94 cloth seats are the most comfortable seats in a 80-cruiser period. And it not only gives you more leg room, but they sit lower as well.

Sounds like something I will completely avoid!

yall are nuts....leather is da bomb
 
Or... You could have the leather on non-electric seats and have the best of both. More leg room and sit a bit lower on these seats taking up space in my shop.... Somebody need to make me an offer on these! Just think- no more plastic plugs to chase around.
 
NOW its an 80 section

Leather vs cloth ..serious stuff there ; )

Damn right!

Ok, serious tech. Michaela's 80 is having a brake problem that has my guys stumped.
Nolen was driving it the other day and noticed it and i have several times as well.
In normal stopping you have a good pedal, but in panic stopping you apply the brakes and the pedal just stiffen ups like normal but it continues to roll. Its like the abs is not engaging right. No lights, bleed brakes and had very little air out of right rear. But pedal acts normal in regular stopping. Strange...

Is there a way to test the booster? Maybe at hard stops loosing pressure

booster gonna give you a hard pedal, stupid hard when failing, right?
 
Did you bleed LSPV too?

Probably ABS or master

Either way its nolan's fault..
 
Not sure, but is there a vacuum line to the booster? May wanna make sure it's crack free and in good order.

Like JBo, I'm thinking aloud...

nope, didnt bleed lspv. but other than panic stops has a good pedal.
if its a abs control module failure or a sensor, on most vehiles you get an abs light on in the dash. this truck has no light on.
I'm leaning toward a weak master but its again not acting like a normal failure.
 
there are vacuum lines to the booster, just make sure they aren't cracked, etc.
I rebuilt a MC and it was stupid easy. Toyota sells a rebuild kit.
 
Vacuum lines look good. Boys in shop are leaning toward a weak booster.

Think it might be a caliper maybe getting stuck? That would cause it to be good during a slight braking motion but the caliper hanging up if forced hard.... kinda your symptoms. I bet they're due for service anyway.
 
Damn the brakes! What about the air!?

Mine is doing the same thing. I ordered a master cylinder and booster. Found rear seal on master cylinder has failed and leaking into the booster.
