Description of the problem | Backing up toward 60 ft dropoff to unload debris. When i hit the brakes the pedal went to the floor. Stopped with e-brake or i would have been down that 60 ft drop. Checked under truck and fluid was running out a break in the line from rusting through in the middle of the line,not at a fitting. Was very lucky that i stopped in time. That would have left a mark! |
