Hi,ive ummed and ahhed about getting shot of my little sammy and replacing it with something diesel until i ripped an 8 foot steel reinforced concrete fence post out of the ground with its winch today and though,what the hell am i thinking,ive spent *beep* loads on it and it goes where i point it,up,down or through and the only thing i can fault on it are the *beep* brakes which once warmed up seem to have a mind of their own,lol!!!!!

Now what is the best brake upgrade as im keeping it now an djust want to sort the brakes out so it doesnt turn left or right when i brake!!!!

cheers

Liam Confused

if it only plays up when it gets hot, have you done a full change on the brake fluid?

sounds like its got water in it and its boiling up  Confused

is it when the engine gets hot or the brakes get hot that you have the probs?
