You probably need to change your back brakes.
Bleed the rear brakes and add new brake fluid. Typically the brakes feeling as if they give too much or "squishy" is from small air bubbles in the brake line...so by bleeding and adding new fluid you let out the small bubbles which cause the squishiness. When you changed the brakes many people tend to hit the line as well as not clamp them properly and therefore render the brakes "squishy". Hope this helps. J
The bleeder valve for the brakes on a 1997 Ford Ranger is located in the brake line where it meets the brake disc. The wheel will have to be removed to access the bleeder screw for drum brakes.
You Probably have air in your brake lines Or you may have low brake fluid. Mechanics can bleed the brake lines which will remove the air out of the lines. I do not recommend doing this yourself.
It is important to maintain your brakes properly. The minimum brake rotor thickness for a 2003 Ford Ranger is 0.99 inches.
Have your brake system checked immediately! (by a proffesional)
more than likely you have air in brake line and need to bleed brakes
You need to bleed the brakes.
U might have a serious wiring problem, or your need to change your brakes.
The type of vehicle is not important, but if brake pressure is failing, you need to bleed ALL the brakes.
Probably a rotted out brake line sprung a leak, check the brake fluid reservoir.
Any sudden brake loss can be the cause of 1. brake line damage 2. master cylinder disfunction
May have air in the system and have to be bled Check the flexible brake lines (front) to make sure they are not ruptured and are ballooning when brakes are applied
