Hi Mike B.
Whew, what a day crawling under that truck. Been a while since I used to help dad with the brakes and get oil up to the elbows.
Thanks Mike. B All worked well with your advice. Re the trick with the brake pads, yes, dad was all over that and made sure I did it, well he did it as I was the grease monkey under the truck. Like you, he knows all these little tricks I would not think of. Bled some air and water from the lines. Great peddle now.
Tackled the park brake also, had to pull the adjusting bolt that hangs down for the inner shoe facing of the brake drum. It was gunked up pretty well. Now she adjusts fairly well.
