Yes the return spring is on there. Remember, I cannot physically pull the pedal back with my hand let alone a little return spring.
Keep the ideas coming
That's one of the working theories as well. I'm not happy with the pedal feel and I think it maybe traveling to far. I still want to double check the MS output volume of each port and finally put this front/rear port debate to bed. As I mentioned earlier, it seemed as if the front was putting out less food than the rears when bleeding them. Currently it's plumbed with the front reservoir-front wheels and rear to rear.
I've read that only some trucks have them. The pedals I bought from a vacuum truck did not have them but I swapped it over.
And I stumbled upon a thread about a Dana 60 not bleeding right. Got me thinking.......
Sumting wong heeer

I knew that....
Is that your axle?
Are these rebuilt mc's. Maybe the bores aren't smooth at the end of the travel because they weren't machined well.
Second MS and the one currently installed is new raybestos
Im thinking there is enough air in your brake system somewhere allowing your master cyl to not return with enough pressure to open the two way valve in the booster allowing it to return. ? Maybe?
Like maybe the front calipers are upside down?

If your bleeder screws are higher than the fluid lines then you need to take the calipers off put a spacer between the brake pads flip the caliper so the bleeder is lower than the fluid line and bleed the brakes that way. My rear calipers have to be done that way.
The only other thing is I had to put a residual pressure valve in on the rear brake line to keep pressure in that line, along with having the adjustable proportioning valve.
That's all I got.

Calipers and calipers brackets are flipped left to right. Have to remove the hubs and all that stuff to swap brake brackets. I'll be busy making a mess for the next hour or two.
That might fix this...just a little. Face Palm. Doh.
