Need a Spot
so i'm running low on fund and time!


could use some side input!

so pretty much i have to double pump to get the brakes get firm or close to locking!

so far I have added new lines old ones rusted away!
front pads
tryed to adjust the rear shoes!
or maybe its that odd brake valve at the rear that adjust with the ride that link to the axle?

hmmmmm....
and bleed the brakes all the way threw


so now i'm wondering if its the master cyl going or the brake booster
or maybe new shoes or drums in the rear that did adjust a bit!


let me know what you think!

This is the proper way to bleed your brakes to avoid spongy brakes, etc...

1. Drivers side rear
2. Passenger side rear
3. Passenger side front
4. Drivers side front
5. LSPV (Load sensing proportioning valve)This is the odd looking valve.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
take your drums off and check your wheel cylanders. i had the same problems and replaced everything(except the lines/and booster) when all that was wrong the whole time was 1 leaky wheel cylander.

Yes, it is on the frame above the rear axle on the PS. It has a rod conncted to the rear end housing on the DS.
