Well, didn't cure the soft pedal issue. Even had Hawk pads put on it yesterday before coming back down here (to stop the squeal hopefully - they squeal when they get dusty, not because of the soft pedal- the originals were in good shape). New fluid in system did not help - still soft as hell when I'm idling on location after the truck gets above 194 degrees. Any less temp and it doesn't do it. Any more and it does it regularly now. Only does it once each time, then firm pedal after that. Still has only done it at speed that one time, but I am getting worried about the public's safety. I am driving slower and not crowding anyone running down the road, but the earliest appt at my dealer or any other dealer around South Texas where I work is like next week or later. May be time to re-visit that 2500 Longhorn I looked at a couple weeks ago.....do they put heavier duty brakes on the 2500? What is an ABS module (I'm assuming it "meters" the flow somehow or something similar) and where is it located at? And WHY doesn't it do it at speed like it does at an idle? It's got to be heat related because of that fact. At speed it is alot cooler with the airflow etc.
