So heres the situation. I've got a 93 wrangler stock brake system. I put on new front calipers and pads also Pro Comp extended brake lines a while ago. Brakes felt fair. Was wheeling last month and lost traction and rolled backwards down hill and no brakes. I checked out my brake system and replace brake shoes and cylinders in the rear. bled brakes out. Now brakes do not work well. Low pedal. feels like they are out of adjustment. Made sure everything was good in rear. I also replaced master cylinder and combination valve trying to fix it. To make a long story a little longer, in reverse rear brakes are inop. Forward they lightly work. I jacked up the rear and put into drive and hit the brakes and the tires still are turning. I've bled out extensively. No air. Also the master cylinder push rod seems to be adjusted ok. The only thing I found was the wheel cylinder pistons retract into the cylinder bore and have about 1-2 mm gap between the shoes. I've check parts again with napa and they're correct #s. Seems that this could cause the problem but how to fix. Can anyone help? Sorry so long.
