Re: Draining brake fluid?

If you remove the master cyl, the metal lines and the booster, all you have left is the wheel cylinders and calipers if it has discs...

You should replace the rubber lines as well...so, just cut the rubber lines off, near the wheel cylinders and place the end in a used water bottle, take the lid off of the master cylinder and let it drain over night.

Put some kitty litter around the area to catch any over flow...

Then just remove the master cylinder etc...make sure the bleeder nipples work ok first...

Note! Warning...There are numerous threads on here about incorrect booster / master cylinder combinations...please ensure whatever you buy matches up...

Finally...Suggest you look at the metal lines, these rust out on 2005 trucks,,,,so suggest you check em out real good...now is the time to do em ...

Stay safe...
