rear brakes working a little TOO well now

[Rdnck84_03]

This truck has the capability for codes?? hahaha

Somehow, I'm not sure exactly how to get the abs codes though. I am fairly sure that the abs light should flash the code though.

I did not. that may have something to do with it. when you say glaze break are we just talking a braided wire wheel?

I usually go after it with some 80 grit Emory cloth.

Oh nice so that’s what the connector by the parking brake is for!

Are you positive you put the same size wheel cylinders back in it? I recently did the same job on my truck, was in a hurry and did not compare wheel cyinders. Pedal is very slightly different now, and rear brakes are very aggressive. I sm betting that this is what changed with mine

I'll just throw this in the pot... I had a similar problem a few years ago after a leaking cylinder and getting all new hardware on both sides of the rear axle. My issue was worse than yours, as I would start dragging a tire(or two) under any rainy conditions, and even a few cold mornings on dry pavement! Not cool at all.
It was quite the saga but ended up being the NAPA shoes that I bought. Went to O'reilly's to try soemthing else after exhausting all options, and that was it. Everything hinged on a bad set of shoes. I have nothing against NAPA, that's just the way it went for me, so it's a possibility!
