Was suppose to pick up truck this Tue. Was trouble with breaks I thought just wasn't power. Need to think safety having change over dont know how much or how long Here are emails. ************************************************************************************************************
These aren't just not power brakes, they are 4 wheel drum brakes. Takes a lot of effort
to get the truck to stop. I'm going to fix the brake line tomorrow and see if I can adjust these
to be better. The problem is someone put a big powerful motor in there without thinking about
making it stop.

Hi Alex,
I won't have the fuel gauge back until Monday. I discovered a leak in one of the brake fittings
yesterday and will fix that. I've changed the oil and the truck runs very well. It moved well under
power, but because of the drum brakes, it doesn't stop quickly. I'm going to try and adjust them
to make them better, but it's not like a modern car.
At some point, you might want to do a disk brake conversion. I've seen them in ranges of $350
to $1500. It would be money well spent , but I know you wouldn't want to do that right now.
Anyway, it will be ready probably by Tuesday at the latest.
