    Dude the trucks are kind of known for having a spongy fell to them. First thing my two bothers noticed about my 2010 was the brakes. Any chance you just became more hyper aware of the brakes?

    does the pedal go to the floor? if so, it is either the master cylinder or the rear shoes. I say rear shoes assuming that you have drums in the rear?

    some of this, a little of that
    You could always ask a shop to make sure everything is adjusted and working properly, also does the trailer have brakes?
