I live over the hill to the south of you in Green Valley on the south side of Hwy 44..
What is the truck you are working on? Those bleeders can be some of the biggest pia's on a vehicle.
I haven't had much time to dig into this site, so I may be asking obvious questions. Cool to see a local!

Got to look at some of your pics thru your profile link and I must say that you have some cool old trucks there. Even the F%&d is OK.
