On my 77 previous owner sent 2 wheel cylinders with the truck. I have looked at the rear right so far and i noticed behind the rubber sleeve it looks just a tad bit wet there. And according to what ive been told in the back if a wheel cylinder is bad it'll show signs like squealing brakes(pads are new). And itll leak fluid under the end sleeve.
Thats my major issue because its obnoxiousoy loud.
However if im sitting on a incline my brake pedal will leak down. After i depress it further after the 2-3 time it leaks down truck rolls forward and you CAN NOT stop it with the brake pedal.
It leaves me with two options slam it in park or use the emergency brake.
I checked the connection on the brake booster vacuum line. Its a new piece. So im thinking its a internal seal in the master cylinder. Which woupd be easier and cheaper to replace rather than rebuild.
Ive also. Checked the brake lines..no leaks. Resevior stays full so it mist be a air leak.
Any insight.
