@PG45er Good job looking that up. Thanks for the info. I really like the look of those tires.
@73fj I do belive it did. And that is precisely why it blew. Can't have things go too smoothly, otherwise someone might think something is up.
Bought a new slave cylinder at the Toyota dealership. During the bleeding process the two internal seals on the new slave cylinder blew. Same as the old one. That would explain why the boot filled with fluid then blew. So same failure on a new and old part. Something is up... have a second new one that was warrantied by Toyota. After sone back and forth talk. Now the trouble shooting as to why the floating piston can move so far out begins. Maybe a seized clutch is causing issues or the clutch master cylinder is not letting fluid to flow back when the pedal is released? Just guesses.
Also finished working up the Pyro and boost gauge lights and power. I have to say again that we are happy with how they look on the dash. About as stock looking as we could hope for. The 12v cigarette lighter was replaced with one thy actually had contacts inside. Made some 1/2" spacers to make the drivers seat sit a tiny amount higher. May get some sort of pad or cushion to raise the height a tiny bit more.
That was allooking last week. We won't be able get more work done on the truck until mid to late March. Maybe it will hit the road then?? Who knows. Stay tuned and we will find out.
Cheers,
Matt
