Hey yall!! its been a while since a posted being that the 78 I was originally going to buy got sold out from under me. A few months later I found a 79 reg cab shortbed k10 scottsdale in a heck of a lot better condition than the 78 and two months after that she was home for 1000 bucks!!! When I drove it home it had almost no brake fluid so I limped her 2hrs back home with no brakes down the highway.
I filled her up and bled the brakes last week and everything was great until yesterday. It felt like the beginning (soft brakes on the way down gradually getting harder, let off and get back on and pedal still at the floor with hard braking and little results) When I popped the cover off the fluid was lower but i cant find any signs of leaking around the wheel but I did notice a miniscule amound of fluid below the master cylinder.
I plan on putting new pads and shoes on soon being that the front driverside squeaks going down the road. My question is where should I start??
