EMERGENCY! brake issues!
Vic: 95 Cherokee Sport 4.0 inline 6 2wd
ok, so i have to go play army for the weekend (in about 11 hours i have to leave!) but my brakes are all screwy
two days ago, i was driving around and my brakes suddenly died, they bit towards the end of a full brake stroke and the entire time i push the brakes i hear a hiss....
i bled the brakes and replaced the brake master cylinder (i assumed that the hiss was the brake booster kicking in....) and the issue still persists!
what am i missing here?!

not losing fluid, bench bled prior to installing.... i'm able to stop it now, i replaced the rear brakes (also bled all the lines after, still good) but i'm starting to write this one off as a torn diaphragm in the brake booster....
i wanted to replace the MC either way so the 56 dollars i spent on a new one (yay military discount!) dosnt bother me
Edit: never lost fluid to my knowledge other then the brake bleeding i did to check for air bubbles, my rear brakes were pretty damn thin, i replaced the fronts about 2 months ago because they started squeaking on me.... i ran out of time to replace the rears and jsut now (last week) got around to replacing them
