Service brake problems in wet weather

[Rawze]

Everyone so far has had some good advice. I would like to add to it..

A loose wheel bearing and leaky wheel seal will make the brakes fail due to oil getting into the pads. Make sure you don't have a wheel seal leaking.

You could have also run through some oil in the road that does this, and are you sure it was the brake pads not grabbing? or perhaps a slick tire.

Regular comprehensive and thorough Inspections,.. Very important. -- It can even be too much slack in your s-cam bushings, pad thickness, a sticky or water-filled chamber, etc.

When is the last time you drained your air tanks to check them for moisture. -- Got ANY moisture in them,,.. REPLACE THE DESICCANT FILTER on the air dryer!!! -- otherwise you may have even more problems in freezing weather.
