Hey Sir, I do have another question. After I changed the all the brakes on my 97 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9 4x4 the only think I changed besides the brakes was one wheel cylinder.
Why does my braking in my truck feel really loose???
I can touch the floorboard when braking.
Do I have air in the lines?
There are no leaks either.

Yeah, gotta bleed the brakes out really well. This is an opportunity to flush the system. (which really should happen every few years anyway.....) Start with passenger side rear, then drivers rear, passenger front, drivers front. You MUST bleed all 4. having another warm body to help makes the job a LOT easier. Also, be sure and adjust the rear brakes as well. That is what controls pedal height for when your brakes actually start braking.
