I appreciate that very much, 78BIG-TEN.  I think I'll just leave well enough alone for now.  The Lucas sealer has all but stopped the leak, so I'll see how it goes.  Once again, thank you very much.

In regards to going to manual brakes I would make certain that a similar truck P10 say would have come that way.  Sometimes the geometry is wrong to allow safe manual brake situation.  I know my C10 with manual brakes work great but I used to drive a small GM car with manual brakes that yes you could stop it fine but it took a lot of pressure to apply the brakes.  Your truck being a 1 ton may take 2 men and a boy to stop it...
