From your thread you say it has discs on the rear,I would check the brake caliper pistons, and Caliper slides are not seized on one side (the bit the caliper moves on)make sure everything is lubed up, but only use a specific caliper brake lube,(rubber grease)sachets available from automotiv suppliers.(not copaslip).
Failing that its a good idea to bleed the brakes "while your in there",remove the fluid resevoir cap first,release the blead nipple,while pushing the pistons into the caliper, and drain off the fluid using a clear pipe so you can see any trapped air.do this on the front as well.
Dont forget to top up the level mark with new brake fluid,and make sure you pump the pedal,and reseat the pads BEFORE you drive the van!
The LAV valve (load apportioning valve) should move and not be seized,follow the brake pipes along to find it,although its unlikly to cause problems with Imbalance, give the pivot a lube up and check the flexi pipes for blebs or damage.
If its failed on the Handbrake side, check the cables for any damage or seizures,plenty of lube in the right places always helps. 😉
my vw t4 failed on the rear brakes last year,it was a rear brake cylinder leaking (drum rears) hope this helps. 😉
