Last year I replaced the rear drum components with new parts from a rebuild kit and the brakes were really good. very minimal squishyness and locked up all 4 tires easily. Now after sitting for the winter the rear brake line blew out and the front calipers were sticking so I replaced EVERYTHING with factory replacement parts or better besides the M/C and the drum parts I replaced last year.
So, I have both new front calipers, all new Braided stainless flex lines front and back, all new hard lines in the back, both new wheel cylinders in the back. And I blead, blead, and blead some more until there wasn't even the smallest air bubble in the system. But I cant get the brakes to feel like they did last year. What am I missing here???
I can still get all 4 tires to lock up but there is a lot of pedal travel before that happens.
Thanks for your help!
