Re: 1988 chevy k1500 shorty rc

so i had all my brake lines in, had a few leak issues fixed them or so i thought and pushed the brakes again to find out it was leaking fluid on the 3/16th line for the front out of the aluminum block, took it out an put it back in twice and it still didn't fix so figure owell ill figure it out after i get my exhaust done. tightened the line back in and completely stripped out the block. luckily we brought my buddys old truck back to the house to start tearing it apart and scrap what isn't any good or useful. so i just unbolted the whole brake assembly of it and onto my truck. got a new 3/16th line just to make sure the other line wouldn't mess up the threads and also had to get a splicer for the 1/4line, for some reason the spot where the rear lone goes in had a larger thread diameter so that's all fixed. going to drop her off at the exhaust shop this Saturday an get my true duals finally done!!!! the all i have to do is license it wen i get my check on Monday! =D so excited to get her back on the road lol i never really drove it far yet
