Ive replace all brake components twice,this has been ongoin fro 2 years now. ive tried several master cylinders ,blew through all lines with success clearing all... now one thing that im not sure of is the rear flex line ,theres a place for the flex line to mount but this flex line doesnt mount..but its on there and rear brakes never locking up. i have one line from the master cylinder that splits. usually they lock up on the left but its happened on the right also. the immediate remedy for this is to open &bleed(of fluid) the line near the master cylinder and fluid shoots out til the backpressure is relieved the you can travel until you brake about ten mo=re times , then it locks up again.ive mastered driving without brakes until i need them desperatly.and then not driving at all.
