Could be, Rotted brake lines, Leaky caliper(s), Leaky master cylinder,
This all depends if you have the larger caliper on the '98. They should fit the rear no problem, but due to the larger caliper you would have to use a 1.25 inch adapter and grind the top of the caliper a little. Of course if you do not have the larger caliper they should fit. Just try it.
It's on the arm of the brake pedal.
Remove brake caliper, then caliper mounting. Now tap back of rotor to remove it. Now undo large nut holding hub and pull hub off. Replace in reverse order.
Remove the tire, and just unbolt the caliper, there are 2 bolts from the back. Now the caliper will just slide up and away from the rotor. If you have to replace the caliper, then check the pads and the rotor. Might have to replace them also. Be careful removing the brake line. Work it slowly so as not to break it. You have to bleed the new one. Take off the brake line first and hang it up to keep it clean.
Check the bulbs, the fuse then the brake light switch.
You have to remove the brake caliper first. Then you might have to slack the parking brake. The parking brake on read disc in inside the back of the rotor. If you cannot slack the parking brake, the you will have to hit the rotor ( with a small 5 lb hammer ) to loosen it. Might take a little time if it is stuck on.
Antilock brake system
very carefully
They come off much like the front. With the wheel off, remove the caliper and the rotor just pulls off. The parking brake is in the center of the hub, there fore you do not need to take anything else off.
Normally this is an indication of a defective brake light switch.
Remove the wheel, remove the caliper, and the rotor will just come off.
