The wheel cylinders being stepped was something I didn't know. Now things make more sense.

Don't assume I know all these details, I've yet to take one wheel off the truck. I needed it to roll a little longer before I start rebuilding brakes.

I'm going to get a set of brake lines for it as well as four wheel cylinders.

Tommorrow, with the help of a buddy, we will see about that noise from the transmission. Depending on the results of that, the brakes are next.

I have this sinking feeling I am going to learn how to rebuild a tranny, though.

I've built engines but not a tranny.

That's what makes owning an M37 so neat...every time you turn around, there's another "learning experience" waiting for you. ;)
