I have changed out the front hoses last year when I redid the the entire front brakes and the new master cylinder. I didn't even see any thing other than steel hoses to the rear brakes...I'll look again. I did bench bleed and I have always used a Motive power bleeder on this vehicle. When I did the drums earlier this spring, I bled the whole system - again - and really thought I got all of the air out. I have not tried jeffengle's approach yet though...I'm going to wait and take this thing for a drive - now that I feel I've got the rear brakes 'better' adjusted and see how things feel. From what others are telling me, brakes are just a troublesome spot on these chassis...
