Some had advised me to find a gravel road and see what I could discover.

 

Honestly there really are no gravel roads around here.

 

I tried today pumping the pedal.  No difference

 

But then I got it up to 40+, took it out of gear and stomped the brake pedal
with everything I had. The right rear pretty much stopped.  Did it again,
and both rear wheels left some rubber.

 

Clearly, as I had suspected, I have no front brakes.  But when I bleed the
fluid flows on all four corners.

 

So where is the best place to have the front rotors rebuilt???
