Still doesn't make sense that pinching the hoses results in an unsquishy pedal. Only thing I can think of like I said before is that for whatever reason, it will hold pressure at 1/8 pedal travel when the lines are clamped, but will not hold pressure once it gets to 1/2 travel or whatever. Symptom is just too funky to blame on a clearly non-leaking caliper

That being said, fuck my life. Wasted an entire weekend chasing my tail. On a positive note, jeep was prepped in two hours

Happems :-/

Master could certainly leak as such. I'd buy that at this point.

New Wagner hydraulics are always a safe bet..
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

New master in and system bled. Pedal still feels like shit but sinking is gone and front tires will lock up at 45mph with pedal stopping at about 3/4 travel. Better than a quick chirp as the pedal goes to the floor. Not convinced its right, but improved enough for use I suppose.

I bet I can still lock up the front tires even with 7k behind me!

Brakes worked great!

30min from home, lost power steering. Got off the highway to take back roads and lose power braking. Come to stop sign and truck is making most god awful grinding noise and feels to have been down a cylinder. Pull over, stump Chad on the phone and call AAA.

Power steering res was empty. I always check it and it's never low. I forgot to check this trip.

Thinking at the very least I need a vacuum pump and steering pump. Worst case I need those plus some new gears in the timing case and an injection pump.

Feeling ready to make a change. Not really sure what yet. Love p-pumps and free fuel, but that's about it with this truck.

sounds like blown hydro hose?  locked pump up? locked exploded vac pump, maybe slipped timing?


not sure how similar 12's are to 24's but i changed that seal on the vac shaft into the PS pump to stop my truck from pouring oil!

Not sure why it ran dry. Going to pull the vac/steering assy out and have a look. If gear looks damaged I will pull the front cover.

Putting a real muffler on my Jeep, fixing doubler shifter linkage, turn signals and a couple other minor things and sticking to local trails for a while. I have finally run completely out of steam to keep this *PILE* running.
