Dodge RAM Cab: Brake pedal loose after replacing Brake Calipers?

Tried Bleeding brakes but brake pedal gets loose or gets stuck up.All started after replacing Brake caliper.

Yes this is common.

Its not problem with brake bleeding procedure.

But the problem mostly lies in brake caliper.

The first thing is to check the placement of the caliper bleeder screws on the front calipers. They are supposed to be at the top of the caliper, above the brake hose to caliper connection:

See the help Diagram shown below:----

If they are towards the bottom or facing the bottom, then the calipers are on the wrong sides. When bleeder is at the bottom, there is an air pocket at top of caliper that will never bleed out. Swap sides with calipers and rebleed and you are good to go.

This details will help.
Thanks.

Spongy brake pedal?

Many car users drivers complaint about this issue.That Spongy brake pedal,the pedal gets very soft,its like very soft/spongy feel when brake is applied.
If the pedal feels "soft" or "spongy" instead of firm, there's probably air in the system. This will require "bleeding the brakes" to remove air from the lines.
With a spongy pedal, you'll probably feel the need to pump the brake pedal to get good stopping ability. The complaint may also be described as a soft pedal. This problem is caused by air in the hydraulic system. Although bleeding the system may remove the air, you should always question how the air got in there. Check for leaks and for proper master cylinder operation.

Getting this possibilities checked/inspected will help.
