brakes seem soft on 94 xj

 

more details, xj was not driven for 2 years fired right up after I removed the belt, seems altenator is seized, brake pedal did not go to firewall but almost. am i looking at seized calipers or potentially a bigger problem, this is a budget build and i did not to blow the budget, any thoghts? oh and can't seem to get it to go in 4lo did not want to break the handle off in my hands.

Hey couldn't see the advice wondering what the problem was for the soft brake's. I have the same issue, parked my 94 xj for winter, brought out to put a lift and 33" on it noticing the brake pedal would go right to the floor. Bled the brakes, didn't change fluid, helped a little but still pretty soft...

 

I had a soft pedal too when I first got my Jeep back in last fall. After looking into it at my (old) work, we noticed that the rear brakes needed to be adjusted and changed soon.(drum brakes) It's back to being soft so now I'll get them to put new shoes in.
