Adjusting the rear brakes made a big difference on mine when I did it a couple weeks ago. Not as much travel for the wheel cylinders to move for the shoes to touch.

Excellent points on the master. I was only thinking of a singular failure of the master cylinder continuing to bleed off and not building any pressure.
I bet if I take it apart I’ll find soggy rubbers and pitted cylinders. The truck did sit for a few years so the damage...
No
Idk, I’m going to have to bleed them again. I think the travel is worse than it was before.
That nasty fluid might be a sign, that was the end of the second quart going through the system.
Something I noticed while bleeding, the first few inches (close to 5”) of travel won’t move any...
Fer sure, you could throw some shackles in the back, most have separate holes for a 1 or 2” drop.
That last photo shows a decent rake, you’re probably closer to 5” in the front.
First of all, that’s a beautiful truck!
If I where to guess it looks like maybe a 5/6? Flip kit by itself is 6”. Could be Any combination in the front.
What size are your tires?
When are you starting a build thread with lots of photos?
