Brakes bled and pedal goes to the floor but I do stop... sort of.
#25
Matt is a very knowledgeable dude. We talked for a while and he gave me some suggestions to try and narrow down the problem.

He had me adjust the rears almost all the way out and extend the pushrod a little further. Then I jacked the truck up on stands to see if the brakes would hold the wheels under a load. They don't.

Initially when I place it into drive with the brakes fully applied I get a hair of movement from the rear. Then when i do some power braking the rears spin. I also tried it in 4-low and all four tires would spin, with resistance of course.

I think he is concerned about the master cylinder at this point. Waiting to hear back from him today.
