Default 98 Sportsman Rear Brakes

I can’t get the foot pedal to operate the rear brakes! Any one else had this problem? How did you fix it?

the rear foot brake on the older sportsmans did not work very good. you have to bleed the hell out of them. a trick we used to use if it was working at all was to place a heavy weight on the foot pedal for a good length of time to help build pressure up in the small and some times useless cylinder. make sure there is plenty of brake fluid in the revivor.
