    Does anyone else seem to have the issue of their front brakes seeming to lock up very quickly?

    My truck is a 2013 dlbcb shortbed trd offroad, and it seems that the front brakes grab extremely quick and was wondering if it is possible to tone them down a bit thru a proportioning valve adjustment or that is just how they are on these trucks?

    Unfortunately there is no adjustment to the front brakes. You can look for issues such as worn pads that tend to get sticky, or glazed rotors.
