Brake repair

I have a 2002 Chevrolet Avalache and the brake pedal is soft. You have to push it to the floor to brake quickly and the anti lock brake system does not seem to kick in. The tires never seem to skid or slide. I have installed new calipers and pads. What is the next step?

make sure your system has no air in, which will require it to be bled. If it still does it have the system checked to see if the master cylinder is good.
