I Bled the brakes starting with the right rear, then left, rear, etc. When the car is on jacks and the brakes are applied the front brakes will lock tight and can't be turned by hand.
When the brakes are applied hard the rear drums just slow down to a slow stop.
I agree the junction block/metering valve usually doesnt' go bad. The car has about 400,000 miles on it.
I'm begining to think its just the master cylinder because if it was the booster the front brakes wouldn't lock tight.
Any more ideas?
This doesn't seem to be too popular for mechanics to want to comment.
I've been doing brakes on the car for over 20 years and have never had this problem.
The back shoes are about half worn but I don't know what the thickness of the drums are.
Maybe they have been turned too many times and the shoes won't stop the drum.
