mike, thanks for the reminder, i have ran into that before with both the steel lines rusting out and the rubber hoses failing. the worst was trying to figure out a buddies camaro that the front right would apply the disc but wouldn't release. we went through alot of things before we figured out the inside of the rubber line had partially broken apart and was acting like a check valve. i will definately go through all the parts before doing anymore than around the shop with it. some of the lines have been replaced already, so other than double checking the work, i plan to reuse them.
is this truck's brake system going to be in a motor manual or similar? it has 2 lines (i think) running to each rear wheel cylinder, i'm sure i will figure it out when i pull the rear apart, but i haven't messed with this style yet and it would be nice to have a manual.
