How is the braking? Does it stop ok or is braking poor? If you pump up the pedal with the engine off and hold pressure on it for a minute, does it sink slowly?
Stops fine but as stated pedal is like a rock when truck not on.
Since the OP did not mention any loss of brake fluid I would rule out wheel cylinders, brake lines and hoses leaking..
Not mentioned because I really don't know. Hubby being the "let's go for the most difficult thing first" engineer type HASN'T LOOKED! :B If I can hobble out to the truck I'll check myself (nursing a bad foot). Usually that would be something I would think of. Hang tight. Now I'm curious.
Checked the fluid. Mind you I'm about 5'5" so I'm not "short", but seeing into the reservoir was a bit a challenge!
Fluid is dark yellow and up to the max line.
