| I could be wrong but that sounds like houre s--t too me too. I have towed my trailer with worn out brakes (34ft gooseneck with about approx 7000lb on top of it maybe 15 to 16000 lb of trailer weight ) and I had too stop fairly fast one time and It stopped but the brakes make a horrble noise sounded like the left front brake pad was gone ( sort of grinding noise). I had the dealer look at it (the truck only had 12k on it ) and they couldn't find a problem and I haven 't heard the noise again. I know the truck will pull more as I have crossed a scale at just over 36,000lb truck and trailer, but I won't tow with out good brakes on my trailer any more. |
