  • 1994 ford ranger 4x4 brake issues

    From charles cates@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 6 00:18:02 2020
    XLT Ranger 4 wheel drive pickup - replaced both front calipers and pads, bled front brakes, pedal felt firm, however, as soon as we started the truck, the pedal went to the floor, so tried bleeding them again - same result - any ideas? - this truck does have ABS - could that be an influence?

    Unless your spraying brake fluid from a busted line somewhere, I would replace the master cylinder first. That's the cheapest part in the system. I had a slowly dropping pedal on my '94 explorer with 116,000 miles, the internet said it was the ABS...a replacement master cylinder fixed the problem much to my relief!
