I have an old Chevy 77 c60 dump truck with drums all around. My brake booster went out. My ? is i been driving with the bad booster can it cause to make the wheel cylders leak?
No. The wheel cylinder will still receive the same amount of hydraulic braking pressure regardless of the driver getting assistance from the brake booster.
Cool to see a big truck with something other than s-cam style brakes… I’ve never seen them before myself, but always heard about it. If you wouldn’t mind, it’d be cool to see pics (or video) of this brake job. :side:
how do I get my rear drums off? I hear the axle shafts has to come out. anyone know how? please help. 77 chevy c60
To answer your original question, no, driving with a bad booster won’t cause your wheel cylinders to leak. Honestly, it might be more likely that your axle seals are leaking if you see fluid in that area. That said, as for removal, I really couldn’t say without at least a pic. I tried finding info on the web but couldn’t come up with a pic of that set up.
Keep us posted.
