also stiff brakes

Some kind of safety system. I don't know exactly. Like I said, it's supposed to do that. And yes Sir, it is very annoying. It can also be embarassing when it catches you off guard. =)

Sorry but I do not think that is correct. Freshly replaced brakes will not do this. Mine have NEVER done it in the past 3 years of owning the truck. And my 94 never did it in the 1-2 years that I owned it. It ain't normal, and my bet is that you've got built up brake dust in the rear. Could also be the shoes as Chrono mentioned. Start by cleaning out the drums to see if that helps.

Huh. I thought it was a safety system.

How so? I can't imagine how it could be considered a safety system. If anything it's incredibly UNSAFE, because it could cause you to inadvertently come to screeching halt with a car following close behind-- collision.

Dunno man. I was always told it was some safety set up.
