Brakes Grabbing and Locking - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**rharris** · 09-15-2018, 11:42 AM

After putting the power brake booster on my truck (71 c disk/drum with booster added) the front drivers side wheel seems to grab more than the rest. Their is some play in the pedal until they grab and that wheel seems to lock. It does release, it just seems to grab too much. I re-bled the brakes a few times and believe I have all the air out of the lines. I installed a new cylinder at the drivers side rear, the rest are stock. Any tricks to getting a more equal brake out of all 4 wheels?
