Finally fixed my brakes
After months of trouble shooting and banging my head. I broke down and replaced the master cylinder and I decided to put speed bleeders on the brake cylinders. Went to buy the speed bleeders and they didn't have the ones to fit my truck. I was like what the hell. So I asked for a wheel cylinder and come to find out the ones on my truck were not the right ones on the back. they were smaller than the new ones. So I spent the morning swapping the wheel cylinders and speed bleeders. Got the system bled and they work like new again. Crazy thing is I replaced all this stuff when I got the truck in 09 but the brakes have never felt right but in the last few months they went to crap.

Congrats on getting it worked out.
Nothing better than working brakes!

Re: Finally fixed my brakes
yes it is. I have not really driven the truck much this year since I put in the 700r4 due to the braking issues. This fall I will strip it down and take it to the paint jail. I want to have it painted the red pearl color of my dodge ram. I think that color would look bas ass on my truck.
