so the truck runs now I need plates but anyways so Saturday night I was going to the corner store to get some beer to just relax and take a load off from everything and just out of curiosity I went to go check the mailbox and guess what I find at 11:00 pm at night

clutch master cylinder and break master cylinder kit
so I said what the heck I got my beer and the girlfriend is coming over to stay the night might as well see how far I get on this baby till she gets here.

so I pulled out the wrenches and started to work.


started but rebuilding the break master cylinder and taking the JESUS clip out bc when you loose these babys only JESUS knows where there at.

this is what the piston and seals looked like in the the master cylinder

so I fixed it and installed both of these babys and had my girlfriend help me bleed the system out.Look at how beautiful she is man I tell you I have a one of a kind woman I thank God so very much!

so we had a problem and one of my friends had to help me take apart the clutch slave cylinder bc it came out of the cylinder and the piston and seals were exposed so had to fix that now the truck is running I will take pics for yall out there

[hemilove]

finished her so here are the pics of it




it rides super rough though but I guess its all part of going low and slow I would like to lower it more from the rear maybe 1 more inch or so

so I was planning on working on the corolla this weekend and hopefully getting it started but Friday afternoon while on a parts run from boerne to san Antonio I hear this hard core grinding noise coming from the gear box and sure enough it was coming from there. the overfill plug was missing and it was running without any oil what so ever I had to raise it up get some gear oil fill it then drain it then do it again and also noticed that the rear output transmission seal was bad and leaking so drive shaft came off and fixed the seal then out of curiosity I looked at the rear breaks to see the condition they were in and guess what no shoe at all on that bad boy just metal to metal contact so no bueno at all my friends

So all is well on the truck now just gotta fix the steeing a lil and lower it a bit more from the rear should be easy lol
