91 Taurus brake help

How does one change the rear brakes on a 91 Taurus. I am currently looking at one that I could get for only slightly more then scrap price. It runs and drives with the exception of no brakes. Guy says it just keeps pumping the fluid through. Which means it's either a hole in the line, a bad caliper, or a bad pistion. He's already replaced the master cylinder. I'm assuming the front brakes are disc.

Any help appreciated.

well, they are fairly easy to change all the lines on - so do it.

most likely a rusted line. IIRC the tarass is all std double flair and not the bubble flair gm likes.
