Finally found one...Now it has a new floor.


Recommended Posts

Noticed a wet spot on the drivers rear tire a few weeks ago. Crawled underneath an could immediately smell brake fluid. Great. The cheap @$$ wheel cylinder must have crapped out. Guess ill order some new ones and tackle it when parts arrive. Fast forward to the day my new wheel cylinders arrive. Start on the drivers side to begin installing new wheel cylinder. Before I start tearing into removing the brakes I like to tackle the hard lines first. As soon as I touch the hard line it snaps free from the wheel cylinder. So after a bit of profanity I pulled the drum to realize the wheel cylinder is fine.  I had a (replaced by me) hard line failure. Ok no problem. The last I did the hard line was when I swapped axles. I admittedly half assed the hard lines. So time to fix them was today. Roll of brake line and fittings from the jungle website and a few hours of later, everything came to a screeching halt.....

 

No really, I drove the truck and it stopped right now, and didnt lose any juice. In calling it a success, except for the axle breather. That stupid plastic thing is snapped off. Gonna just break down and tap the hole for a brass nipple. Seems to be a good option. Unless someone has a better idea.
