Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 9:18 pmHaha, I was just messin'. You'd have to be even nuttier to do that! Brakes on the ex, or the tow rig?

Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 9:26 pmThe ex, they went out coming off of Hurricane, I had to use my parking brake, got them back, after posting on the ef site about it, Ted hit it right on the nose, I'm pretty sure I boiled my brake fluid, that is on the list to repace before next time on the road.

Posted: Mon Sep 23, 2013 10:56 pmOh yikes, brakes seem to be the big issue lately. What caused the fluid to boil?
Looks like tug had a great time, and with the rain I'm guessing not to hot. None the less looks awesome, keep the photos coming.

Posted: Tue Sep 24, 2013 9:55 pmIt was a serious pucker factor when the pedal went all the way to the floor, I think at the winch point and just after I was holding the brakes hard to keep from rolling backwards and going slow over some obstacles. I had thought that I had caused the rear end to overheat because I had oil coming out of my breather and heard a boiling sound, I checked the rear end, which was not hot. But after Ted stated that boiling of the brake fluid might of done it, 2 and 2 made four. The master clylinder is close to the extended breather tube, I never opened the hood, didn't know brake fluid could boil.

Posted: Tue Sep 24, 2013 9:57 pmDamn, do you think it was due to old brake fluid, or just simply overuse?
Oh, and thanks for the invite!
