2005 f150 4x4 Brakes locking up
#16
Well I'm not sure but kinda am sure it's not only because I have 2 of these trucks 1997 f150 flareside and 2000 f150 flareside both identical for the most part took that caliper off the 2000 which I know 100% works great (had that truck 5 year so far never an issue) and switched that caliper over and same thing damn break still sticks and gets hot then locks up till I leave it sit a few mintues and I can hear the caliper popping back and releasing some said break booster and pushrod ??? Or pushrod adjustment

Also was told vacuum leak at break booster or manifold because I do recall while sitting at stop lights hold the break pedal and the truck idles a little funky I DON'T KNOW I JUST KNOW IM GOING NUTS TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT lol I appreciate any and all help ideas thought philosophy anything that might lead to a cure

I replaced the master cylinder last night and then both locked up in the front real bad I'm thinking the previous owner screwed with pushrod and it's pre loading my master I'm not sure what's going on but I only have a few parts left to change before the whole damn brake system is new lol and truck does idle weird when at a stop light with brakes applied someone said vacuum leak at booster
