2014 SR5 2 inch lift brake Bias Adjustment

Postby maddog89984 on Tue, 10 Apr 2018 1:35 +0000

I cant seem to find any info in the rear brake bias adjustment for the 2014 SR5. There is no rod to adjust like on the earlier models and my brakes are crap since doing a 2 inch lift. Any help would be appreciated

Hhhmmm the brakes in your car are ABS controlled there is no bias control that I know of.
Was the brake line opened while the mod was done (brakes feel spongy) if so then you possibly have air in the brake line. And they could require bleeding.

Only thing that comes to mind I can think of.

Your model is TRC equipped therefore no rear adjustment

Installers may have let the rear diff fall stretching / splitting rear brake line fittings - check rear lines first.
Failing that check the front lines for any evidence of brake fluid leaks
Dont drive it till its fixed - if leaking brake fluid the brakes will go from crap to nothing at all

Did you just install a lift, or did you increase tyre diameter at the same time ?

No leaks but stretching of the brake hoses sounds very feasible!
