| Hi all,
After completing a weekend project turned three weeks (as some of you 
may have noticed) I took my 1500 out for a shakedown.  Well,  the only 
thing that got shook was me!
Feeling good,  radio blasting, top down (38 degrees), stop sign, NO 
BRAKES! AT ALL!  Well at first I did and then goodbye.  I guess it is a 
good thing I replaced that broken emergency brake cable last weekend.
When I made it home I popped the bonnet and the engine compartment took 
a shower in dot 4.  It appears to have made its way out the master 
cylinder where the piston comes out.  A new master cyl is awfully damn 
expensive but after the last few weeks I doubt I would have the 
patience to do a proper (SAFE) rebuild.  
My question is:
Compared to the clutch MC how would you rank the Brake MC in terms of 
dificulty?
Any pointers to make a rebuild go more smoothly?
Anybody got one for sale, ready to go, cheap?
TIA
