I have a 1983 F350 cab and chassis with duels, and the 6.9 IDI. I bought the truck for hauling tractors, hay and other things around the farm. The truck weighs 6,000 lbs, and it�s rated for 10,000 GVW. Back a few months ago I got a load of gravel, (about 4,000 lbs, within the GVW limit) I was driving home and noticed that when I pushed on the brake pedal, it wouldn�t stop good. Also the brake pedal is somewhat hard to push, I know it isn�t supposed to be as easy to push as my grandfather�s new Silverado, but it seems it should push easier than that. I have changed the front brake pads to heavy duty pads and change the springs in the rear brakes. For reference, my grandfather's Silverado 1500 will stop a 14,000 lbs trailer without trailer brakes better than my f350 with 4,000 lbs on the bed. The truck stops pretty good empty, but not good with a load. Does anybody know if some thing I can do to the brakes to get it to stop better? Thanks
