Brake problem after lift/kingpins/steering/37's
Hey guys!
SO here's my issue-
I lifted the front of my truck 4" and put in new king pins and steering this last weekend.
I also installed 37" Goodyears.
In disassembling the front end I compressed the caliper piston using a large C-clamp for easy removal as the FSM details,
Now that everything is back together my brakes hardly work if at all.
I cleaned the pads and disks with brake kleen, I bled the brakes just in case.
I expected the big tires to make a difference in braking performance but not this much!
Any ideas what might have happened?
AND here's a pic of what she ended up looking like-

when I installed my crossover steering while relocating the power steering box my power steering line pinched my vacuum line and so I was running non boosted brakes :-P
Thanks for your time!
