Brakes

I Am Having Annoying Problems With The Brakes On My 1993 Full Size Bronco. While I Am Driving I Can Hear Something Squealing And When I Push On The Brakes It Slowly Becomes A Loud Rumbling Noise And The Steering Wheel Pulls To The Right. I Am Goin To Clean Them This Weekend But I Think Something Major Might Be Wrong. Any Ideas On What To Try???

Sounds like a calper sticking(you need a brake job).

looks like your brakes are gone. New rotors caliper on the right and pads.

We took our Bronco off-road last weekend to get to a cool fly-fishing spot. 45 minutes travel later down rocky, steep fire roads we arrived at our destination. After turning the engine off for approximately 5 minutes I restarted and noticed that the breaks were very spongy. I could press the pedal almost completely to the floor before the breaks would engage. Having run the engine in low and attempting not to exceedingly use the breaks on the trip down, could air somehow have gotten into the master cylinder?? Anyone have any suggestions? Pads look fine ... breaks are better after a sit overnight but certainly not normal. I am thinking of bleeding the lines.

For anyone interested ... bleeding the brakes lines took care of the problem. After the fact I decided to re-do the brakes on all 4 tires. It got even better.
