Yeah, I'm trying to make sure I include all the stuff that the first time so everything looks somewhat integrated. I hate having stuff look like an afterthought.....

Well last night, me and the wife tackled one of the tasks I hate the most when it comes to building these trucks, bleeding the brakes......... It seems like every time we do this evolution it is always painful.

Well this time I attacked the task a little differently. I double check all my line connections first, I used this little brake bleeding vacuum tool at Harbor freight, and I said a small prayer, . 3 pints of DOT3 brake fluid, 2 small leaks at the front calipers, and 60 minutes later - it appears I have a good solid pedal and no drips!!!
