Hi there,

Never second guess brakes, to many lives have been lost by people thinking that it will be OK. O/haul the entire brake system, It is not a huge job and when done your brakes will work better, you will have a firmer pedal and the knowledge that when you hit the pedal it WILL stop, Please don't mess with brakes, do it once and do it right.
