When you say you are running AR brakes do you have the floating system with the small dog bone shaped connector in the center or the modified system with the solid one piece activating arm? The floating system was discontinued and many states outlawed it. The phaeton in the avatar is an early 28 and had that system on it for years. Every now and then the floating system would bind and you would have very little braking ability. If you have the floating system I would look for the single piece replacement. It is an easy change and keeps the left hand brake.
