The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Front Brakes not bleeding.

So the drama continues...

Purchased NEW Wheel cylinders for all wheels. During install, turns out the rear wheels were indeed leaking at the wheel cylinders, front not so much. Got all 4 cylinders installed and proceeded to bleed out the brake system. After well over a hour, I am still getting bubbles and very little pedal. At this point I am just not sure if the power brake booster causes it to not have a full pedal or not??? Its enough to stop the truck now, just not very fast. Pumping up the brakes no longer helps though, so that would seem to mean most of the air has to be out of the lines?? No leaks anywhere now, I triple checked. Maybe the shoes need further adjustment. I had them adjusted at a very slight drag, when spinning the wheel. Maybe tighter?

If you haven't noticed, I am not a brake guy. Starting to think I just need to tow it to a shop and have them do the brake work.
