    1999 poor braking

    The MC was changed to the one with the smaller bore. 1-1/8” that I think is correct for the JB5 brakes. Pedal travel is better. Still doesn’t stop very well. The shop suggests trying a new booster. Not sure if I want to pay for another “long shot” and hope it works. FWIW Shop owner has been...

    1999 poor braking

    Original type obs master was installed at the shop. Took truck home. It’s worse now. I think it’s a bad mc. Pedal goes to the floor. Bringing it back. This really sucks. I just want to drive it.

    So apparently its an LT with the sport trim package. RPO codes 1SC and BYP. Also has Z71. Seems like a very well optioned truck.

    Just about everything is new or very recent. The shop is going to replace with a obs mc next week. Hopefully that helps. Still have the steering slop and lack of power to address after this.

    The pedal isn’t spongy. It just doesn’t have much grab or bite to it. I think I need to learn how to quote people. Thanks for everyones help.

    Good read on the mc and caliper compatibility. Thanks. I think that’s the next step, to go back to obs mc.

    new pads calipers and rotors. Back drum brakes are fine and adjusted. Just doesn’t stop very well. Looking for suggestions for improvements. Is police package parts much of an upgrade?

    Yeah the PO put the GMC nose on it. I have a Tahoe one. Maybe I’ll swap it sometime. I like the Torque Thrust wheels actually. Came with the original rims and tires for the winter.

    It has 188k on it. I’ve had an eye on it for a few years and one day on my way home from work it had a for sale sign on it. Sold !! P.O. had it for 10 years and took really good care of it. It has the Z71 package and you can see where it said sport behind the doors Does that make it a Z71...

    I know right? Isn’t that why you save them for all those years so you can give to whoever buys it later on. fortunately for me though they did at least save the window sticker. This site is an unbelievable wealth of knowledge btw. Spending a lot of time on here the past couple months.

    Hello all. Back in October my shop manager told me he was buying a new Armada and was going to sell his wife’s old Tahoe rather than trade it in. I wasn’t really looking for a vehicle at the time but I asked anyway what he was looking to get for it, knowing I am poor and already have five cars...
