In any event, I've changed my mind about doing a partial fix myself. I drove the truck this afternoon to see just how dangerous it is. Rear brakes only, of course. And the ABS is probably losing its mind because the left rear is locking up on any heavy application. I just hope I can get it to the dealership without rear-ending anyone.
Its a job to do it your self I've done a few older cars and its a pain I never have done a vehicle with anti lock brakes. I've never observed a Georgia car with rusted out brake lines. Just northern cars where they used salt or someone who lived along the ocean.
