Exclamation Brake Problem

I Am A New Member Here And I Have A 95 Runner 5.5 Susp. Lift, 33s, Brush Guard, K/n Filter, Soon To Have Rear Locker And New Gears And Headers.
But I Was Wondering Why All Of A Sudden My Brakes Feel Like They Have No Pressure Behind The Pedal, Rotors And Pads Are Brand New (about 4 Days Old) I Was Assured When I Replaced Them That It Would Go Back To Normal. But When I Press The Brakes I Hear A Hissing Noise And Have To Push To The Floor... Anyone Know Anything About This Problem?

A pedal going to the floor is either a leak or air in the system. If the hydraulic system was opened when the brakes were replaced then it didn't get bled correctly and still has air in it. If not then you've got a leak or a bad seal somewhere. Check all the wheels for leaks. Brake fluid is clear, has almost no smell and feels slippery. If there is no leak at any of the wheels check the master cylinder.
