    (1982 Toyota Pickup 4x4) I noticed a significant loss in brake pressure through my brake pedal, and I would love to know what outlets provide reliable master cylinders. Is my local AutoZone or NAPA good enough?

    Edit: I am aware that the master cylinder is the issue, and the braking system isn't leaking.

    If not the dealer I tend to go with Napa anymore.

    You can go with rebuilt or New with Brake Products I tend to go with the Ultra premium grade.

    Something this old is most likely not on the shelf

    That's in the rust belt if I'm not mistaken right? My truck wouldn't last a couple years with that amount salt n shit.
