Break Leak - Cant find it.
All,
I have a small break leak as my truck is going thru break fluid about one small can every three months. I visually looked at all four tires from under the truck and from behind the rim. I've not taken the wheels off yet but wondered if you had any suggestions of common break leaks on these trucks. I'm thinking something with the master cylinder in the drums in the back or something. Any suggestions

The only way to be sure is to pull the drums and look. If it is in the drums and that much, it would be showing on the bottom of the drums by now. I'd guess it's in the master cylinder, leaking into the booster. Take the 2 nuts off and look at the end to see if there's fluid there.
