Well lets see I lost my brakes today and when I took corners I was hearing a noise. Jacked up the rear end. Found sway bar bent and my gas tank is leaking what a day

Replaced rear brake hardware, shoes & cut drums. No more grabbing and groaning :^) Replaced brake power booster. Nice, strong brakes now. Have to wait on front propellor shaft. Starting a road trip in 2wd, finish the job on the way.

If the booster was going out would that mean you have very squishy brakes even though you have new pads on and the brake lights on?

Parked the wife's jeep behind mine last night thinking we were gonna go out again.
Ended up not going out, but I needed to turn my jeep around so I backed around it and thought I was straddling the culvert pipe at the end of the driveway...
I never knew a tire could go so flat so quick without hearing it.
So the culvert took a bit out of my sidewall....
...and now my jeep looks like this:
Yay
