Gotcha!:)

Let me pop this on ya.... If were talking either the master cylinder or
the brake booster, would it be wise just to replace them both in one
shot?? I know it sounds like an extreme solution, but with 200k on the
truck I figure they're both going to go bad eventually. I've been
looking at the parts, and for $200 I can get both brand new from the
stealer. Only question is labor.... I'm not even going to attempt it so
if it's not much more to do both, I might do it.
