Get someone to pump on the brake peddle then hold it down while you release the air bubbles by unscrewing the valve at the brake line. Then retighten and go through the same procedure until you have brake pressure. Make sure that your helper holds down the peddle until you retighten the release valve or air will enter from your end.

I have a grinding/scraping noise when driving forward. It sounded like rear brakes, and I checked/replaced rear parking brake parts that were suspect. Also changed rear drive shaft ujoints after noise...

Good Evening, those noises can be annoying and sometimes hard to find. However it sounds like you have a front hub assembly going bad. Usually the noise goes away when you veer one direction or the other. I have heard some transfer case noises but they usually do not go away on turns. Check those front hub-wheel bearing assemblies and see what you come up with. Hope this points you in the right direction.

I have a 1999 chevy silverado with a 4.8 LITER.. my brakes were fine until i broke a line at the frnt passenger side. i lost most of the fluid..i repaired thr line and bled the sytem numerous times.. i...

Hello, my name is Ben. Since you say you lost most of the brake fluid, I agree it's most likely air trapped in the ABS modulator. The problem is once air is trapped in the modulator, it will take a trip to the dealer to bleed the system. Before you go to the dealer, you may want to try bleeding the brakes IN THIS ORDER, right rear,left rear, right front and finally left front.. That is the recommended sequence.

2002 chevy 1500 4X4 pickup front wheel bearing assembly

Just to make sure they are a sealed hub and bearings...remove the brakes and rotor and on the back side of the hub there is four bolts remove them, remove outer nut on CV shaft, then pull hub from housing. clean hub seating area then reinstall.
Was thinking that's what i did on mine, just becareful when you place the ABS sensor back. line it up so you don't have to take the wheel back off. Good luck and hope this helps

Changed oil pan gasket now i dont have much oil pressure

If oil pressure was fine before you changed the gasket, it's likely that some debris was loosened up (probably under the pan baffle) and got onto the oil pump pickup, restricting flow. The only other cause of low pressure would be worn engine bearings, which would not happen just by changing oil pan, unless you messed with either bearings or pump while pan was down. Remove the pan and carefully inspect the pump pickup for debris!!! DO NOT DRIVE VEHICLE 'TILL YOU HAVE CORRECTED THIS OR YOU WILL DAMAGE BEARINGS!!!
