    brake problems

    ok so I got an update should have posted 2 weeks ago. My problem was the master cylinder I guess it was all messed up that's why I wasn't getting any fluid to the calipers. replaced that and bam! I was able to bleed all four corners. I didn't need to get a scan tool for the abs. So I found...

    Ya I did I guess. I pulled it off completely and cleaned it out good. Installed the hydro boost then reinstalled the master and added fluid. I’ve done this same thing on this same truck before and never needed to do anything other then bleed the four corners. How do you bench bleed?

    I don’t have a tech 2 but I did go and buy a do it yourself vacuum bleeder I should have said that in the OP. I’ve tried everything I can think of pumping these bad boys and using the tool. And I agree I don’t think the hydro is the issue I intsalled it perfectly and bled it.
