My hoe doesn't have that. I'm going to look at everything tomorrow morning and see if I can find any brake's in the lines or see how worn out my lines are. Man I wish I had a one man brake bleeder lol.


My bad I do have it. It was hiding under the PCM. Will get back to ya.

Checked the abs and its getting power. How do I go about checking the motor that runs the abs? When I turn the key is the abs motor so pose to come on or make any noise?

I too had a similar problem with spongy brakes. After replacing everything, and I mean everything, I did a little research and discovered it was probably the master cylinder (I replaced this twice). I purchased a "Firm Feel" master cylinder from Stainless Steel Brake Corp. ($200) and solved all my pedal issues. Just my .02.

I messed around with it all day yesterday and I got it down to the MC. I will be changing it out this week. Anyone have any suggestions on a good replacement and a link? Mine is a 4x4, is there any diffrence between the police one and the 4x4? I looked them up on line and the only diffrence I could see was the price.

If you don't like the feel of your brakes after you figure out your issue look into some SS brake hoses a few company's sell a kit, it made mine noticeably firmer
