A bad hose could cause a brk pull........ occasionaly the left rear locks up such as a red light I'm not sure what you mean by that but if the wheel is locking up when brking, inspect the shoes real close, any kind of contamination can cause that..... mountianeer66 New User Mar 31, 2010, 9:30 PM Post #3 of 6 (4110 views) Re: 1994 silverado brakes Sign In hoses are less than three months old. as for the rear wheel locking issue the shoes are clean no grease or dirt i actually roughed the shoes with a fine rasp to remove some surface dirt. when stopped at red lights when it turns green the left rear occasionally not all the time acts as if the brake is still on it drags then finally releases. it only happens seemingly at random thats why the new proportioning valve im really lost re-tired Veteran / Moderator Apr 1, 2010, 7:31 AM Post #4 of 6 (4099 views) Re: 1994 silverado brakes Sign In Even tho drums and rotors look good i would have all machiined for them to have equal surface finish and grip. Your rear return springs may have lost some of their tension . A pair of hardware kits would eliminate that.

Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 14, 2010, 2:38 AM Post #6 of 6 (4074 views) Re: 1994 silverado brakes Sign In So, what that means is that the advice you were given earlier to resurface the rotors was correct and you still haven't "permanently" fixed it. You still need to resurface to get the job done right. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
