Rear Brakes Pulsating
Lol I was actually pretty surprised no one here mentioned the adjusters, but it's all good. And I was also surprised that you have to take the drum off to adjust. Everything else I've worked on I didnt have to. I feel like I've gained some good experience from this so I'll know what to do if I...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
Guys if you know you have pulsating coming from the rear brakes, check the damn adjustment for the drums!! Cause that's all it ended up being for me!! I was on the edge of going to the store and buying all new drum hardware for both sides. My dad took the truck for a drive last night, he asked...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
The previous owner installed the flip kit, so I'm not sure if they reused the U-bolts, or which Co's flip kit it is. I feel they did a pretty solid job though because I've been frame banging everywhere until I put the notch in, and I'm sure the previous owner was too, and she's always drove...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
I really dont think it's the front rotors. When I first got the truck(about 8 months ago) the rear brakes werent even getting brake fluid. It was only the fronts stopping, and she still stopped great. I really think its the rears cause she was all good until I took the wheels off, to put the...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
So I took the drums to oriellys, they did a good job and made them look like brand new, and they let me go for free! Which was pretty badass. (usually 20 bucks a drum) I got home, threw them on, put the wheels on, torqued the lugs down with the torque wrench, went for a test drive, and its...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
Yeah I did take the wheels off the truck, but did not do any work on the brakes when I put the C-notch in. I torqued the lug nuts down properly today, took her for a drive, and she's still the same. I'm gonna go ahead and get the drums resurfaced soon, and at the same time, check the studs and...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
Yes they did tighten them down with an impact. I appreciate your advice. I'll torque them down just like you said when I get the chance. About getting the drums turned. I dont have a lathe myself. Are the people at oriellys and autozone trustworthy enough to not **** them up. Or where else...- Boulky12

Rear Brakes Pulsating
I just got done installing a bolt in C-Notch in my 1990 C1500 single cab swb. After I put the wheels back on and went for a test drive, I'm now getting a real bad pulsating on the pedal, when braking. Can you guys give me some advice of what I should look for. Ive had this issue before when I...- Boulky12

Truck is Still Squeaking!
When I first got my truck it didn't squeak, but the front coils were cut so much it hurt my back to drive. I bought replacement coil springs and cut one coil off each spring. After I installed them, the truck began squeaking. Ive greased everything up. I've replaced lower ball joints on both...- Boulky12
