Well I realize this is a pretty stupid mistake. The brake fluid did ruin the master cylinder. In my defense the new master cylinder had a DOT3 fluid only tag on it. Evidently this truck has 2 options for master cylinder. One uses a reservoir and brake fluid. The other (my application) uses a hose from the hydraulic tank to keep the master cylinder full. I also found that only half of the shoes, the middle of the shoe is making contact with the drums. The drums are out of tolerance. Quoted customer for new drums. I appreciate the input mr fixit.

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
