I have been having problems with one or both of my calipers sticking. I have replaced them three times over the last five years. I only put around 6500 on the truck a year with very minimal towing. Anyone know of an upgrade or a trick to help these things last longer???? I have already put the Chevy one ton wheel cylinders in the rear.

 

ya no doubt my truck eat pads like skittles id like to know some one told me the master sylinder was bad but my truck did it from day one. ya i bought it new in 98. and i have the chevy cylinders also great for stoppen but still goes through the pads.???

 

Are you putting brake lub on the slide pins and pads?

I have been lubing up the pins, but to no avail sticky calipers.

 

Replace the hoses and make sure your rear brakes are adjusted so they do their fair share of work.
Even better replace the rear cylinders with larger 47447 cylinders.
