after taking a 300+ mile trip each way - my trailer brakes on my 99 Ranger 690 seemed to give me some trouble its a tandem axle trailer - the pads started wearing uneven at an angle on both sides top is thin botttom is thicker - and the rotors got very hot - doubt both calipers stuck at the same time- maybe the valve in the master cylinder is stuck ?? just wondering if anyone has run into a similar situation - im an auto mechanic by trade so I can handle the repair myself- just havent had the time to pull the wheels off yet- figured Id ask if anyone had a similar issue - Ranger is closed down until the 6th of Jul so cant talk to them yet or order parts - any input is appreciated - Thanks Martin

not sure if im even close on this one but have you checked your bearings? anytime i have seen uneven wear on anything regarding wheels brakes etc. it has been due to bearings.

definetely not a bearing problem- there is no play - and they are liquid bearings so you would see if the fluid leaked out- but Thanks for the input
