Re: Rat repair.

Got a call today from the 4X4 place, My lift kit was shipped today! I expect it about mid week next week. Also got an email from the disk conversion company and they also shipped my brackets today so i should have them probably Monday.

I bench bled the master cylinder then mounted my Master and booster then hooked up the new Proportioning valve, i included a pic of the old master cylinder, showing that is did have a gasket on it, anyone else ever seen one? i discovered that a thermostat gasket is a pretty close fit, but i didn't use one when i put it together, i had one and was just curious it it would work.

Stripped all the rust off my rear cover and then cleaned it with brake cleaner followed by acetone then hit it with some Phosphorous acid and it will be ready for paint tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'm gonna paint the cover and head up town before work, I need an easy day, just hope its a nice day tomorrow!
