The Master Cylinder Swap was not too bad, the worst part was getting the clutch to bleed back up.

First I needed to readjust the clutch linkage at the slave cylinder, because the adjustment I make last week was not needed & it just made the clutch slip.

two 2x4 under the right front tire gives me room to get my belly under the running board.

To remove the master cylinder, first undo the lines to the brakes & clutch. You mite want to invest in a 7/16 line wrench for this job as many folks have rounded the line nuts using a so called normal wrench. then remove the 3 bolts and it come right off.

This should be the same for pickups with this same set up.

Old & New Master cylinders side by side. I got the new one from Autozone for under $50.
