MC is leaking fluid - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Earlier this week the brake pedal went soft all the way to the floor with manual brake equipped. Well today I opened the MC cover and found the back resivoir (disk/drum) MC was empty

. So I start looking for leaks and all of the lines under the truck are dry. So I keep trouble shooting and wonder if it if the pedal rod came loose. After getting under the dash I notice the floor is covered in brake fluid.

I am assuming the rear seal on the MC piston is shot because when I pulled the MC away from the firewall it was wet.

Anyone ever have this problem before? Can the MC be fix or do I need a new one? Anyone have any recommendations on where to get a new one that will last? Help please my truck is parked until I get the brakes fixed.
