my rear cylinder blew last friday when i pulled into my drive way cause i steped on it a litte bit more then i noramly do and i saw a puddle out back on my driver's rear drum so i knew my cylinder went....but i just replaced everything from the front of the car to the back with all new brake lines.....but i was bleeding them tonight and the new cylinder went....wtf is up with that......too much pressure.....
