I appreciate all the advice and it really does help.
Unfortunately I can only do a little at a time, so yes this weekend I
need to check the pads as well as the other suggestions that have been
made. I want to rule out every possibility before I replace the
master cylinder.
I understand your feeling (re have a pro do it), but I like this
truck and want to learn everything I can regarding it's repair and
upkeep Im no mechanic but I need to start somewhere. I am not going
to learn anything if I bring it someplace and have it done for me.
Fortunately I have some free time and I can keep the truck off the
road so I have the luxury of learning as I go. Luckily I you guys
have taken the time to point me in right direction too.
Thanks
Kevin
