When I brake on gravel or snow conditions, the front brakes lock instantly and the back brakes don't appear to stop at all. I noticed when I was in reverse on the ice that I was being tugged backward at an idle and the front brakes were locked. If I press extremely hard on the pedal it is capable of stopping the tire from spinning but thats about all. I have replaced the master cylinder twice, bled the system manually and then had a shop check it and power-bleed the system. They say it seems ok. But if I go up a steep driveway with gravel on it and try to stop it slides all over. Any suggestions. I've owned the vehicle for years and it was never like this.
