my brakes are gone. im not sure what's wrong with my braking system. i got 2 discs in front and 2 drums in rear. i think i have to bleed my brakes because when i press the brake pedal all the way, that crap won't brake. it'll brake somewhat but the car skids all the time. kinda scary. i know that with four discs, you have to bleed them from the rear passenger disc, then the rear driver, then the front passenger and lastly, the front driver(closest to the master cylinder). with two discs, do i go from the front passenger to the front drivers. i dont think i can bleed drum brakes, right? what do i do with the drums? i think thats the problem, that i have too much air in my brake lines. i dont think its the pads because they don't screech or anything so it dont sound like metal rubbing against metal. if anyone has any suggestions or comments that can help me to bleed the system, thatd be greatly appreciated. also, if someone can tell me the order in which to bleed the system, thatd be great too. i think its from the passenger fron to the driver front side. is this correct?

I found out the problem! I replaced my drum shoes. It eneded up being my Master Cylinder that was messed up. All that work. lol. Well, at least i got new drum shoes. the toyota master cylinder will be around 135. the ones at discount are like 60 but theyre aftermarket. adn they only have the ones with abs. so that sucks. but w.e. glad i found out the problem. thanks to everyone for their input and help!
