I just recently replaced the rotors, calipers, and pads on my 96 Cherokee and today I got in the truck and the brake pedal went right to the floor. Then the brake light came on and stayed on. I drove it up the road and it stops just not very well. It feels like it did before the pads and rotors (they were non existent). Think it could be my brake booster? Master cylinder? Beyond that I have no clue, so let me know what to look for! My brake fluid reservoir has never had less than the "fill" line full of fluid. So I'm sure there is no air in the system (due to that anyway).

Also, I trimmed my flares and front and rear sheet metal, could I fit 31x10.50's on my factory wheels? I don't mind a little scrapage but nothing hardcore, so opinions on this are welcomed.

Thanks for any help guys.

I assume to bled the brakes I would rebleed them. How did you bleed them.

If you bled them properly then yeah you prolly need a booster.

Do you have ABS if you do then Remove it lol. Brakes will work better.

I agree and have you looked at the resevoir on the master cylinder after the pedal to the floor incident or just assumed it was full.
ABS will be a PITA as long as you have it if you do, in fact, have it.
Yes you can fit those on stock rims but it will have them scrubbing your LCAs.

same thing happened to me, one of my brake cylinders in my passenger side drum wasn't functioning properly, replaced it and it was fine

Yes, I checked the brake fluid after the incident, and twice more to make sure my eyes did not deceive me. I bled the brakes correctly for sure, the truck had AWESOME brakes for like 3 months, it stopped better than my GSR. It just did this when I got into the truck this morning. I've never seen an ABS light in my truck (that I recall). Its a Sport model if that makes any difference. I've only ever noticed the BRAKE light.

So I can run 31x10.50's on my STOCK SUSPENSION with chopped up fenders?
