rear brake problems

I have a 97 Ford F 150. 2 years ago The left front caliper locked up. I had to loosen the bleeder to take the pressure off. I replaced that caliper. ever since then the back brakes will not pump up. the fluid will just trickle out. any suggestions?

On the f150 the rear brakes have to be bled from right front to left rear and from right rear to right front. You may have gotten air in the abs. Try to bleed it that way first. If it doesnt work let me know.

Take it to a shop that can pressure bleed the entire system and that way you get all the air out and all new fluid.
