Well, I am certainly no brake expert, but a 200 lb driver in a 2500 lb car puts 16% more weight on the driver's side. A rough approximation, I know, but it does seem likely that the passenger side would lock up first under a "particular amount" of pedal pressure.

If this happens over a narrow range, in other words, if a little bit more foot presssure causes both wheels to lock up and a little bit less won't cause either wheel to lock up, I can't help but wonder if it's normal.

Odd, but i have never braked hard enough to lock up any wheels on mine.
