First I tried to run the truck with stock master and prop valve as I wanted that look. Didn't work so I picked up a new master with disc/disc prop valve - went through and found a few leaks where hoses and calipers weren't sealing - thought i was good and then right rear caliper started spewing fluid all over. So I blocked that right rear off thinking I could just go with two fronts and left rear (at least for cruise central). I started to build up pressure and then i would constantly lose it. I am going to rebuild right rear next week and start all over as there must be air somewhere because i can't keep a peddle!

Thats because I don't have one - haha

I am not sure what direction I will be going with issue. I would love to go Accuair, who wouldn't right!!! I have a 3gal that I will attach to the underside and use to lift the truck after I lower for a show etc... But if a bag is leaking or something - not so good!

CheyenneShop · 11-23-2011, 12:36 PM

Was able to get the brakes working!!!!! Front rotors where on the wrong side, so the bleeders where down, and the air wasn't coming out! Its always funny when something is so simple yet such an ass kicker!

Made it up to Goodguys. Still got some stuff to work on for sure but at least i can stop now.

Lamar next time let me know and I'll have a cold one waiting for you bro - hows the truck???

72BlckButy · 11-23-2011, 02:19 PM

In the first pic on post #216... is the front end aired out?

When I compare it to the third pic the front end seems to be higher in the first than in the third.

I love this truck.

Somewhat - not all the way. I do it manually so it isn't always the same. Pictures of it in the grass are pretty much all the way down.

Thanks alot

**Dieselwrencher** · 11-23-2011, 04:54 PM

I'm glad to hear you got the brakes fixed and were able to make it to GG's!

**lolife99** · 11-23-2011, 06:04 PM

Glad it was just a caliper install issue.
Your truck is PERFECT!

FRENCHBLUE72 · 11-23-2011, 06:23 PM

Glad to see ya got the truck squared away looks great outside on the grass..
