[QUOTE="Dennis Shelley, post: 1022467, member: 58803"] Yeah I messed up on the mileage, it is 205,000 The ST was a salvage, hit hard in the left rear. I replaced the rear axle, transfer case and three wheels. Also body work on the bed. No water/submerged issue. the rusted brake line at issue was last replaced 8 years ago, This time for two weeks prior to replacement I hit it with penetrating oil. When replaced last time iit barely came apart (rust). Brake fluid with all it's quailities is very corrosive. Learned the hard way, after any metal is in contact with brake fluid, wash with soap/water, rinse, dry, cleanse with carb cleaner, wipe dry, spray with paint. Now searching for a replacement line, to replace the line I made. Looks kike the dealer is the source. will get this done :driving: Dennis [/QUOTE]
