OK - so I've replaced rear shoes, hardware, wheel cylinders, and an axle seal. Thanks to all for all the advice. I'm surprised I've gotten this far.
The car is all back together now and I've bled the brakes with the mityvac? vacuum pump. I thought I sucked out all the air with it, but I still have a mushy pedal. The brakes work, but the pedal is REALLY mushy.
Since the rear brake lines were off, do I need to bleed the FRONT brakes, too?? I'm pretty sure I followed the bleeding procedure to a T, but I didn't bleed the fronts since I didn't crack them open.
Any help?
