Wet Braking

99 F350 DRW CC PSD Just wondering if anyone has noticed that there SD pulls when it is raining? I now have 38K and the truck seems to be pulling a little when applying the brakes in the rain. As sone as the rotors dry off they work fine I was just thinking out load that the calipar that is mounted backwords catchs more water and that is the one that is causing the slight pull. Not looking for truble shooting ideas just looking to see if anyone else has the same thing.

Thanks

I haven't noticed it, but I'll pay attention tonight when I head home in this freezing rain we're getting.

No pulling in any direction. The truck brakes straight and smooth.

Keep tabs and if it continues to get worse you might want to pull the pads and check them out.

Have a great day too! :-)

NoMo,
What the heck are you doing driving around in FREEZING RAIN
We need to keep you around here for awhile, at least until we suck you dry of all your information:P

My truck brakes very straight in the rain too. Then again, I'm not running Firebomb tires

Thanks for your concern but it wasn't bad at all... never did freeze on the roads. Unfortunately, it didn't keep people from driving like there was no tomorrow. SCARY!

As for the other, I think you have it backwards. I'm the one gathering info frome everyone else!
