do you have any brake pedal resistance when pushing on the pedal? somewhat normal? or just goes to the floor?

unbolt the line to the drum. does fluid come out?

if so, replace the brake cylinder. if not, your problem is upstream. which would be a blockage in the hard lines or a problem with the prop valve. disconnect the prop valve, and see if you can blow fluid down the hard line.

take off the drum and verify you don't have a bad/leaking wheel cylinder or some broken hardware in there also...
