    Power Steering

    Does anyone have a tried and true method of curing the almost non-existent power steering at idle? I have a 1994 K1500 with the factory style saginaw pump. Nothing fancy, no hydroboost or big tires. Still running the LT245-16s. I have changed the pump 3-4 times over the truck's life and I always...

    Impossible to bleed brakes

    I own a '94 with over 300k on it now and had the same brake line blow on me. I also replaced the prop valve with what looks like an identical unit to yours. The original had seized internally from the loss of the fluid limping it home. I couldn't bleed my brakes either. Changed m/c (twice), all...

    JB5 JB6 JB7 JB8 Size Thread

    I only changed the master cylinder. Not the booster. The pedal feel was great but I had to stand on the pedal to get the truck to stop. I deleted the RWAL module but even then, the tires would not lock up. None of them. I did the swap to 3/4 ton calipers but now have the hodge-podge of brake...

I've already changed the master to the NBS and hate it. I have deleted the RWAL dump valve. I plan on changing to the 3/4 ton master and calipers in a...

    Master Cylinder Upgrade?

    I'm confused? So my truck is the only one that can't have the GMT800 master cylinder installed without the booster push rod change? Where do I get a push rod for a booster without buying a booster? And for what year truck do I buy a booster? I have read numerous threads all a bunch of truck...

    Master Cylinder Upgrade?

    The vacuum booster is factory GMT400 and the cylinder is GMT800. There was no mention in any thread I read about changing the booster during the upgrade. "All you need is a NBS MC and a fitting" to convert the one port to correct size. I can't change the push rod length.

    Master Cylinder Upgrade?

    Let me start at the beginning. The rear brake line popped on my way home from work one day from age and I managed to limp her home. The line was popped along the frame rail behind the fuel tank. It was pretty rusty. That was a relatively easy repair. I was trying to bleed the brakes and realized...
