    Well I had to replace the line too.

    Its a screwy system. You've gotta put a big syringe at the lever and another one at the caliper and basically cycle the fluid from one syringe to the other until the air is all out. Then alternate a vacuum and pressure on the lever until the air is all out. I had no bubbles at all and the brakes worked fine until I removed the syringes. Was quite the mind####. Once I pulled vacuum on the caliper side it took like 5 minutes and I was done. Ton of air in it.

    Boy I love all that green!! What a great color.. :thumbup:
    Nice outfit partner.!


    I didn't know you run a 17.5 tire too..
    Assuming you are running the 245/70r17.5 tire to have a 68mph speed rating.? I'm running Continental HTL2 on the wagon 235/75r17.5. They are speed rated L @75mph, but still J 18ply 6005lb single, 5675lb dual. The height difference is minuscule, so something to think about next time you need rubber.. I was going to get the 245/70's until I saw the 68mph rating..

    Even if you only want to roll 68mph, nice to have the extra cushion..

    You know the worse thing about owning a second hand 20+ year old truck is.........
    All the morons before you who thought they were Joe electrician! FML.....behind my dash almost brings me to tears. It's just sad. I look at that and I have to ask...why was that a good idea?
