brake pedal question

[JW]

Hi everyone,

Wondering if there is supposed to be a return spring for the brake pedal assembly?

I just went through a rebuild and I have vacuum boost power brakes (new), may have missed something. Sometimes the pedal will not return fully and the front brakes will drag unless I pull up with my foot.

thanks in advance,
Jason

No brake return spring in a stock bronco. Might want to check the push rod adjustment on the power booster and make sure the power booster bellcrank moves freely it could have a worn spot thats not allowing the pedal to return like it should. Maybe so lube will help.

thanks broncnaz, I will check, seemed like something trivial
