No Brakes

Thanks you guys are great

sorry, I have not had a chance to do any maintenance this weekend. I am on the local fire dept as well and it is has been a slightly busy weekend.

Yes the previous owner has made a swap to a dayna 44, I will check rod travel and if mc is correct. I did not think about any of that

No worries. I thought about becoming a firefighter when I was younger.

With disc or drums?

What type of booster do ya have? I keep refering to it due to the fact I just replaced a booster in 74 Scout, for another member here in the forum, that had the wrong one for the Dana 44 with disc that a previous owner installed. The wrong booster was the cause of the no brakes. If you're not sure if the booster is correct, post up a photo of it. The booster is what the master cylinder gets bolted too. Worse case scenerio, and I could be wrong, a booster May not have been installed from the get go. Meaning manual brakes from the beginning. Doubt it though.
 
Another simple possibility is the adjustment of his drum brakes. If they are out of adjustment, it will also result in a pedal going almost to the floor. With new brakes, there should be drag felt when turning the wheel by hand in either direction.

I've never worked on IH brakes before but I'm sure its the same for all drum brakes.
