Re: Rear wheel panic stop lockup

The rear of a pickup is light with no load so the rears lock up. With a full load they tend not do so. That's by design on old trucks. Another thing is that when the rears lock you can still steer.

Unless someone is worried about brake fade in the rear, disks are a cosmetic upgrade.
