Hi
I have a 2015 Utility dry van that just had the brake shoes replaced.
I noticed this morning when I was driving empty to go pickup a load that it seemed to bounce when applying the service brakes.
Maybe it's just my imagination or something. Something just seems wrong.
Maybe shocks?
Thank you

Could be that the brake shoes and drums
Are not worn in (bedded in) and also new friction material is grabby and brakes are probably adjusted up tighter than tractor brakes. That is usually the case. Give them a few days snd it will settle downEdjahman Thanks this. -

I have trailers transferred in here with those type problems. They often have the wrong drum and or brake shoes. Did not replace cam bushings as needed.
Hope a little running and proper adjustment works for you.
Call the people that did the work and ask them their opinion. Then there is a record of it.
