can you elaborate?
Sure thing. Stepped on brakes coming to a traffic light and they felt normal. Took off from light and RV felt "heavy" (haha, like it ever feels light right?). Drove for maybe an eighth of a mile or so, pumped brakes a few times making problem worse. Pulled into a parking lot and felt both front hubs, extremely hot. Limped across the street to an Auto Zone and replaced master cylinder, all ok. That was 6 months and 24,000 miles ago. Yep, 24,000 in 6 months, lol. I tend to drive it quite a bit.

your master cylinder was causing it to lock up?
thats a first to me, usually they just stop making pressure and you lose braking ability.
This happened to my 1986 Sunland Express about 4 months ago, locked up close to an Auto Zone, changed the master cylinder and bled the brakes in the parking lot and was on my way.

I've had mine on for about 3,000 miles now, they are pretty sweet. I am running the slightly taller 195s and wishing for a little more horsepower. I felt like I needed the extra load capacity since I am always rear axle heavy. Scale says 6800 total but haven't weighed individual axles yet. Tires are quieter than what I had before and sidewall flex is much less. I'll buy another set of them again.
