I have a 1990 Ford Ranger. I installed new brakes on front and back and put new master brake cylinder in. My front brakes work great but the back don't work. I blead the master cylinder but still no back brakes.
Do I need to blead the back brakes? Please help. Thank you.

Hi there,

You will have to bleed all brakes as when the master cylinder is removed air will enter the lines, it may not be much but, all brakes should be re bleed, this will also flush out the old fluid and will help give a better pedal over all.
