Well, I took the Jeep in today. Of course, it wasnt having the issue when I took it to the shop. SO they are saying that since it seems to "release" when it cools down, then locks up when it is driven for a while that it may be a hose with a tiny pin hole, when it gets hot it wont release, then when it cools it does? They said they have seen this in ONE other case??? So, I said while they are putting on a new brake hose just to change the caliper too. I am tired of messing with it. Hopefully one or the other will be the fix! Thanks for your help guys!
Oh yeah, as for the parking break they told me it should be on both rear wheels? I see you mentiond it is just one side? I dont know, they acted like it wasnt the parking brake and it was working properly! I wish it was the ebrake, i would just have them take it off!

Parking brakes are definitely on both wheels. I think he meant it could be just sticking on one side. Hopefully it's resolved.

Anyone know of a dark red paint kit? I've used G2 but they don't have a red or maroon that would match the Sport Red. If I can get some discounted G2, I'll get red and black and see what I get. Hoping for a better option though.

Having a white Tahoe, I wouldnt mind paintin mine white. But I dont see them looking very good. I would think the brake dust would cover them the minute after you washed them? Does everyone agree? I have never had painted calipers.

I had bright red on my Ram. They were surprising clean most of the time. I was afraid of that too but I don't think it will be a problem.

Biglg: silver might look good on your white truck.

Vacation and beer yes. Painting, no. Besides it was easy. The hardest thing was waiting for the drying time. O.K., lets go get a beer.

You're frickin crazy. When you get all that done, take it for a trip north and you can pull it into the fire station and we'll paint. Then when we wait you can buy me that beer. :-)

The lowering kit is a ? I was bored today, so I washed, waxed, and detailed the Tahoe. I am getting ready to post some pictures to get everyones opinion on the lowering kit. Anyways, I wouldnt know what to do in the winter time if I didnt have a truck to toy with. Summer time is full of golf tournaments so this keeps me busy in the winter!
