Question 01 Dakota 4x4 crew cad brake pedal...

seems to go to far to the floor. Replaced front and rear brakes, and the brake pedal still seems to travel just as far. Brake reservoir is topped up and full. Any ideas how to bring the pedal back up?

Thanks

The master could be getting weak. Quick test on the master is use brake line clamps to pinch all rubber lines off and see if the pedal moves at all if it does you have a bum master.It should be rock solid. If it is remove one clamp at a time and try and press the pedal.(start with the rears)when it drops down too far again,try bleeding the one you just removed the clamp from and start over again.
Good Luck
