my brakes?????????
I started off changing my rear brake shoes and I proceeded to bleed brakes, no brakes still, I checked front shoes just fine, so I changed the master cylinder got a nice brake pedal when truck is off drove it and could not stop, as far as I can tell the brake booster seems to work fine no air sounds and not a really stiff pedal.I have visually check for leaks nothing that I can see any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Re: my brakes?????????
they were going down almost to the floor but it seemed as though none of the shoes were expanding out almost like no friction there.

Re: my brakes?????????
Did you bleed the master cyl independently before installing it, connecting & bleeding the lines?

Re: my brakes?????????
It may sound crazy, but did you expand the shoes out to meet the drum after installing the new shoes?

Yes we did bleed the master cylinder, but I will have to check and see if he (my father)adjusted the rear brakes.
