Welp I screwed up 2002 F-350 brakes

[tonyt2293]

02 f350 7.3 srw


So a month or so ago I blew my line from my ps pump to my hydro boost no big deal limped it home replaced the line and bled the system but in the middle of doing so I added a few ozs of atf into my master cylinder not even thinking put roughly 400 miles on the truck since . Well today lost my brakes coming up to a stop sign pumped the pedal and got them back so shot home and tested the system mc was shot only then did I notice what I had done . I ordered a new mc and going to flush the system and abs module. What are the chances my soft lines and calipers are going to be toast as well ? I'd much prefer not to buy new rotors,calipers, pads and lines would be about 1400 bucks

Trade the truck in on a new F350. You can probably find one for $1000.00 a month with 10K down.

Rotors and pads shouldn't be impacted and still good if they aren't worn down. If it was mine I'd be replacing the soft lines and calipers though.

If those lines are from 02 replace them out of age alone

Figured if I'm replacing calipers might as well replace them too but hoping they will be fine till December

Master cylinder and ABS if you have it are the ones that get shot: oil floats on top of brake fluid. Seen it done before.

Hoses are inexpensive.

Calipers are easy but more costly.

IOW some of this depends on finances. You don't need to answer, not trying to embarrass you.

Personally I'd always wonder about calipers so I'd do it. When a caliper randomly failed on my '11 SuperDuty it just pissed brake fluid on the shop floor one night. If it can do that with no reason to think the seal was abnormally compromised.....

Everything that's rubber that touches brake fluid needs to be replaced...and all the metal stuff that touches brake fluid needs to be flushed with brake cleaner, blown out, more brake cleaner, repeat....

If you do just the master, the rest of the rubber that has absorbed the petroleum oil will leach it back into the system and keep destroying everything. Gotta do it all, and gotta do it all at once.

Calipers, hoses, prop valve/ABS unit, Master, etc...
