I recently bought a mistreated 94 4runner 3.0 AT 140000 miles. It ran but not well, I have slowly but surely nursed it back to health but am having some issues with the brakes... When I got it the brake light in the cab was on. the MC was low so I filled it and the ight went off. The truck will stop good but there is a lot of pedal travel. I replaced front pads but can't seem to pull the drums in order to replace shoes.
So anyway when you pump the pedal the amount of pressure needed to stop the truck is greatly reduced. In my past expeirence this means there is air in the lines somewhere. First of all is this correct? I bled the front brakes with no improvement. I am going to get 2-3 qts of brake fluid and will try to flush all the lines and hope for the best...
In the meantime I would really appreciate any insight or suggestions.
Thank You
