    Anyone having brake issues

    As many of you know the Sprinters do not come with very good brakes for the class B and C motor-homes. We have solved that issue with crossed drilled and slotted rotors, steel braided brake lines and ceramic pads.

    ABS problem

    My van is activating ABS on every stop at slow speeds. My brake lights also came on. I went to Chang brake pads and the ones on the front have 75% pad left. This all started after I changed the front wheel bearings. I would pull the fuse if I could find it.... Anybody have any ideas how to fix it?

The front brakes are simple enough - two bolts to remove the caliper and you can throw in the new pads. The rear brakes, however, don't appear to have any bolts. Instead there are rubber nubs...
