87 Cherokee braking problems

After many modifications, braking ability has deminished. Can push pedal to the floor with not satisfactory results. Could ther be a problem somewhere in the system or do I need to modify. Have changed all shoes and bled system to see if there might be air bubbles. ???

What mods? Usually if you go larger on the tires, you'll notice a little less braking ability. How did you bleed the brakes, did you change the Master Cylinder?

8" lift with 36" tires. Bled brakes by starting farthest from master and working to closest. Have not changed master. ???

With the much larger tires than stock you could runinto a definate brake problem. I would try to upgrade the brakes, maybe Powerslot rotors and pads. Is it like you feel the brakes grabbing but its just not enough to completely stop you in an emergancy?
With the 8" lift, I will assume that you changed out the brake lines. If everything worked well before the lift was installed then I would say your going to have to upgrade the brake system to handle the larger tires. But if your M/C went empty during this process, I would take it off, bench beed it and then bleed the system again. This might help.
