I'm sure it will show up..... double check all the soft lines. Also behind the booster and master cylinder.

keep an eye on the back side of your brake drum and fluid getting slung on your rear tires. a rear brake cylinder could be leaking and its sort of hard to locate the leak

Where are you? In a salt region? Crawl under & examine the brake lines. Click my black Bronco below & look in the Brakes & Hubs album. Your truck has RABS.

Check soon

Check the bent steel brake line behind your left front wheel. I believe it goes under the plastic innerfender. They tend to rust through here. My 94 blew while pulling a trailer. My dad has a 95 and his did the same thing about a month ago. He was ready to leave his driveway with a load of cattle and lost his brakes.
