Hey guys i have another question....
i replaced all my filters today(fuel/oil) and did an oil change, everything went great, until i got in fired her up and got her up to operating temp. i was going to take it on an easy cruise until i tried the brakes and the pedal went clear to the floor with almost no braking power
. i guess i have no braking fluid in the system, so that left me wondering where it all leaked out. i think iv narrowed it down to my front driverside wheel cylinder, due to the fact there is a oily residue leaking out of my wheel and down my tire, onto the ground. so my question is,... am i right
and if so should i buy a whole new cylinder or just rebuild this one. i went to OD iron's web site but didt see a wheel cylinder rebuild kit for the front on a 5-ton just the rears.
any sugestions or comments are greatly appriciated.
Thanks Guys
Ryan
