    no brakes Rampage 4 wheel disc?

    FInally got the truck out for a little drive and had no brakes hardly. Its an 82 Rampage 4 Wheel Disc. 91 Shadow fronts and 87 S Daytona rear solid dics. Using the master cylinder from an 88 S Daytona with 4 wheel solids.
    Also a prop from the 87 S Daytona.

    What am I missing? I have no leaks What am I missing? We have bled and bled switched out MC's, don't have anu leaks, etc.

    i ran into a somewhat similar situation with my '86 K-Baron, blew a wheel cylinder and couldn't get it to bleed. i replaced the M-Cyl, and still couldn't get it bled.
    these cars have a "split diagonal" brake setup.
    bleed the R/R, then the L/F. and then do the L/R and then the R/F.
    not both rears and then both fronts, you'll never get it bled out that way

    Are you positive the zerk bleeders are at the TOP of the calipers? it is easy to switch left and rights when replacing the calipers, then you could bleed them forever but there is still a huge bubble at the top of each caliper

    Sorry guys, got out of the ER not too long ago and haven't even really been able to move around. When I get to moving I'll try the "X bleed" and yeah the bleeders are at the top.
