Basically I took the van in to the shop and they told me they couldnt fix it and that I need a whole new brake system because there was some kind of liquid that was corroding and eating up the parts. They said I needed to take it to the dealership to be fixed. I have no Idea how much that will cost and if it is even worth fixing.
it can be fixed, its a question of how much is the van worth to you? do the math and see if upgrading to a newer modle would be cheaper than putting in a whole new brake system for your old one. if its just the lines, your auto parts store can sell you replacements relatively cheap but if you need calipers, master cylinder, wheel cylinders proportioning valve it could get expensive quick.
it doesn't have to go to a dealer to get a new brake system on it i did a 98 this week and the total bill im looking at right now was around 800 and that front and rear and that's counting parts and labor on it and that was using new drums and rotors and all new wheel cylinders with rebuilt calipers,and ceramic pads on the front,and the best shoes you can buy and all the parts was bought through advance auto parts,it shouldn't cost you no more than 800.00 at the most,good luck.
