Sold my 2002 BLK #9638 to my wife's uncle, Sold my 2003 BLK #6682 to a nameless man local to me.
so how do i go about fixing this? can i just tighten it back up?
add fluid and bleed and be good?

looks like that T junction rusted a hole in it. Probably need a new rear brake hose which should include that T fitting. It could also be the hard line rusted through leading to whatever wheel is to the left in that picture.
I would personally replace every hard line and brake hose on the truck, so that random leaks don't keep popping up in the future.

cleaned the area. got wife to pump brake while i was under. pin hole about an inch from T going to driver side.
Kevin makes a good point, not a bad idea to replace all the exposed lines with the winter roads you're subjected to up there.

that should fix your immediate problem, but I would still suggest replacing the hard lines that run from the back of the truck up to the ABS block, they're probably rusted to **** too.
And the front kit on their website isn't the hardlines, just replacements for the soft rubber front hoses. There's a lot of brake lines left on the truck after those 2 kits are installed that are ALL at risk of rusting through and leaving you with no brakes in the future, IMO.
i examined the lines that go to the front. i dont know if because blocked by frame rail? but they look fine. like they should. and the ones in the front look fine. but everything around the axle area is rusted. at the T. where the rear connect to the calipers are fine also. its just like 6" each way of the T. And im pretty sure i had to tweek/move the T many years ago when i installed lightning rear sway bar and panhard.
