you should check the right front. See if the caliper is starting to freeze up. I would be worried why the right doesn't have as much braking as the left side.

I really hope someone can help me. I am new to the diesel truck owners club. And have very little knowege of diesel engines. I got off of work and went to start the truck. It started fine for it being 30 degrees give or take outside. When I put the truck in drive and gave is some throttle It died and wouldnt reatart. I am aware it needs glow plugs. And the wait to start light didnt come on after it died after i turned the jey on and off.

you may have a brake cable problem

you're have to check that the brake cables are releasing all the way. Best thing to do is when you think it is going to act up is to jack up the rear end and then release the parking brake. check both rear wheels to see if they are both stuck or is it just one side. Also, how do you know it's the rear that is hanging up? Sometimes the front calipers can stick and it may feel like the parking brake. If when you chcek the rear wheels and they both spin and are not locked up, jack up the front and see if one or both of the front wheels are stuck.
