Great video. You are very detailed. I am changing the clutch/brake pedal bracket that broke and was contemplating needing to remove the clutch rod/booster to get it out. You showed me how at the end and that is what i needed to see.
You can pull the clutch line out of the truck without removing either the engine or transmission- just disconnect it down at the bell housing, remove the master and the line, and do your bleeding.It's a bit of a pain but worth the effort. Now, the slave cylinder- that is a different story- you would have to pull the tranny or engine to get at that
Can you do a follow up on the clutch bleeding? I just did the clutch and now I have a super stiff pedal and it won't bleed any fluid, doing the clutch master in the morning. Thanks for the video
Jack, the only thing I can think of is that if the clutch line is not properly attached to the slave cylinder, then no fluid will pass through. It will be spongy until you bleed the master, get the air out, and then it will become stiff. But, if the slave is not connected, then the line will not open at the bottom for fluid to go into the slave. So, this would make the pedal hard while no fluid coming out. Double check your connection and make sure it is secure, or the valve will no open in the end of the line.
I think you are dead on. The last thing that I can do is trim a little off of the Chinese fingers off of the slave cylinder to help seat the line. As it is now it will be held in but not far enough to release the fluid
@@jacka5676 Keep in mind also that there are 2 different kinds of connectors down at the slave. If there is a mismatch there, it will not go together. Make sure that the male and female are the right ones for each other.
Don't worry about the paint- the paint on the truck is trash, and slated to get redone- stay tuned. But you are right, paint and brake fluid don't play well together.

Very helpful. Gave a thumbs up. But what about the pedal?
Thank you! What year is this?
