Hello to everyone on this board! I just picked up my first Chevy pickup, I've had Chevy's before but never a pickup. It's a 85 Scottsdale 3/4 ton Camper Special with 140,000 original kms on it. It's got a 350, th400 and a d60 rear. I will post some pics as soon as I get a hold of a camera. The question I have is about the rear brakes, they seem to lock up when you come to a complete stop, but only when you first move the truck and only for a block or so. Then it's gone! I've never heard of any thing like this before. Anyone?
Thanks
Dave
