Looking for the true experts - have had it to two different brake specialist and they can't find what is wrong. Can not bleed driver side rear brake, thus we have brake noise (scrapping, light) and rear brakes feel mushy and not working real well.

Master cylinder checked ok, new cylinder sensor, new wheel cylinders, new shoes, new emergency brakes, everyone is stumped as to the problem any ideas out there.

1987 Dodge Caravan 4 Cylinder Thanks for any help

Could be a clogged rear brake hose. Also some Caravans have a valve in the rear that controls brake bias depending on load weight. Not sure what the official name of this valve is.

disconnect lines at cylinders and calipers pressure flush all lines, double check that the calipers and cylinders aren't binding,new doesn't matter...can be a factory defect..re-install lines and pressure bleed system..also check all junction blocks and valves..
