Q: Brakes
Well to be honest i think i need to just drive my truck. My brake booster is good, not sure still if air is in abs but i don't think so. I did the 3 test to make sure that the brake booster has a good seal and working properly and well it passed all. I have it still on jack stands and i haven't dropped it even tho i got new self adjusters, but i am pretty sure that i have adjusted it good. I will drive it at night to see what happens because there is usually no cars on the road because i don't want to RAM anything if they still don't work. Should i drive it tho that is my real question because you guys are the pros i am not. truck is a 1997 dodge ram 5.9L v8 4x4 Laramie SLT. i think i doing really good for my age wise working on cars.
