No problems at all, except a little while later was coming off a long steep mountain pass with a 10x50 mobile home behind. That side did some smoking so I guess I burned off the rest of the gear oil residue

Hauled logs with the truck for about five years after that and never did another thing with the brakes.
Thanks for the input. I think I'm gonna clean them.

Currently (03/25/2024) looking for an Action Line truck, specifically 1969-1970, in very good condition. Longbed only, step or fleetside, or flatbed if C30. Must be unmolested (not modded).
