Went for a ride!
Replaced all 4 wheel cylinders, cleaned everything up and replaced the master. Went for about an 8 mile drive in the K20 Wrecker. Wow, this thing is geared low.
 40/45mph and she's humming along pretty good. Was great to get her on the road.

Re: Went for a ride!
You replaced the flex hoses, right? I'm glad you enjoyed that ride! Nothing like getting something you've worked on going down the road.

Depeing on how big of tire your running you can get lower RPM's with a taller narrower tire like a 235/85 16 or the 215/85/16 is you have duel rear wheels

Re: Went for a ride!
The PO replaced the hoses. After I got it, two wheel cylinders started leaking along with the master. After removing the wheel cylinders, a couple of them had stuck pistons.
I'm running 245/75-16 tires right now. Larger tire may happen in the future.
