need help with brakes
First posting hope this works. i have aquired an f600 fire truck 1972 with 10000 orginal miles. It has been sitting almost 5 years. I have got it started and it purrs like a kitten 330 cid engine. i am having trouble with the brakes. I have changed all the brake lines due to failure (rust) did not change the hoses though. I cant find any. I have been trying to bleed the brakes with a brake bleeding tool to no availe. I have gotten alittle fluid to come out but not much. I was told that when it ran last the vacum assist may be bad. It does not have power steering I was told that information was needed. Any ideas? Hydraulic brakes by the wat

F600 Welcome to FTE the nations truckstop 
I am not up on the larger trucks but as moderator, wanted to take a moment to welcome you to the forum.
Good luck getting answers and the brakes fixed, sounds like you have a nice rig to start your own fire fighting business.
