Re: Pressure bleeding

I'd say about half the problem with aftermarket master cylinder setups is that the sellers are extremely vague with their instructions and assume that the person installing the unit is well versed in brakes in general. I've searched for online instructions on installing these units from the sellers in the past 20 years a number of times and it never gets any better. Not much for actual instructions and not much as to which end of the cylinder goes to what end of the truck.

That goes opposite of what we usually do if we snag the brake system off a donor rig, Then you usually check to see what line goes to the front and what line goes to the back and try to remember for later.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
