Thanks guys for all of the imput!!! I have not checked the wheel cylinders themselves for leaks, but only because my garage at the house is so small I can barely walk around my truck once it is parked in there. I was hoping that low fluid was due to the prior owner not filling the system/bleeding the brakes properly 3 years ago when he did all of the brake work.

I will take the truck to work and put it up on the lift and then pull the drums and check the dust caps on the wheel cylinders and then go from there. I have a second master cylinder lined up just in case. I will also flush out the brake fluid and re-fill and then bleed the brakes.

Thanks for all of the advice/tips. This website is great and I look forward to posting some positve news about the brakes real soon.
