me and my brother are working on my 88 XJ, and we seem to have a weird problem with the brakes
when we hit the brake pedal, it easily hits the floor without any problem.. we first thought it was the master cylinder - so we replaced it, bled the brakes, no air in the lines at all now but still no go - we then replaced the booster behind the master cylinder, bled the brakes again, still hits the floor no problem
we've replaced:
master cylinder
booster
shoes/pads
the cylinders in the drum brakes in the back
we're still hitting the floor with the pedal, there's no pressure at all.. something i noticed is it's not as bad when it's off, but as soon as i turn it on its very easy to hit the floor with the pedal
any idea what could be wrong with it? im running out of ideas - only thing i can think of is the reconditioned master cylinder being bad
