Toyota 7FGU35:
Poor braking.

I have a new customer with a 7FGU35 of the '07 era. It has weak braking. I pulled the wheels and drums today, Everything is in check, wheel cyls move, dry, lots of shoe, no visible wear in drums. good backing plates but still a weak brake. I reassembled it, adjusted it, burnished them a bit but still a crappy brake. BUT the pedal did come up firm. Can those brake valves send a weak or lowered pressure to the cylinders? Anyone run into this before?? I have ordered new shoes because I don't know what OE thickness is.

Architect Gustave Eiffel originally submitted his design for the Eiffel Tower to Barcelona but the city rejected it for aesthetic reasons. As we know, he had more success in Paris, however, his plan was far from popular at the time.
