ok so i just bought an 88 f-350 and 1 of the brake lines on the axle had a hole in it. i replaced the line and my brakes still suck, so will further digging the rabs unit is leaking now from were the 2 halfs come together. i was gonna bypass it but if i do that will my cruise control still work?

 

well, if the wheel is stuck , with it off the ground its not rabs ... e brake locked up maybe ?

Need more info ... what have you checked ?

 

its not stuck, the braking sucks ***. has no ebrake cables, rear brakes have been adjusted flushed all the old bake fluid. but i went 2 bleed the rabs and it was leaking

 

Ahh .. i see....

 

so if i bypass it will my cruise control still work? i drive 200+ miles a day and cruise control is a must so i don't wanna lose that.

 

I dont think rabs will affect cruize control ... in fact .. all it should be doing is making sure the rear diff dosent lock up on hard braking ...

 

oh ok then i will bypass it and c what happens.

 

lotts of guys have done it .. should be easy ..

 

ya once my double flaring tool re-grows legs and comes home im gonna bypass it. or ill just go buy another so next week i will have 2 of them till i need them again.

 

well i bypassed the rabs this evening and bled the brakes for about an hr and i finally have normal brakes again. i still need to pull the abs light but my parking brake light is still on. how to i fix that without removing that bulb to. better question is what causes the parking brake light to come on besides the parking brake engaged.
