Last weekend the brakes on the bus were just ok the pedal is very firm but doesnt seem to hold good. I looked at 3 of 4 breaks tonight they are dry the drums are smoth. When we went riding around Austin some hilly stops were tought to hold. Any ideas I have a trip in the bus this weekend about 500 miles.

Were the brakes hot and just fading? Maybe the shoes have glazed over. Try taking some sand paper and rough up the shoes. just a thought. |

That sounds like my Westy's brakes, the pedal is hard and I need to just about stand on the pedal to get it to slow down. I just assumed that's how buses stopped, makes me miss driving the notch. |
