Default i did it .......but.......

i did the rear wheel cylinder swap with much ease. i only had to remove the smaller rear spring on the driver side.It was a little tricky getting in place with the plunger shafts but i made sure it worked before i but it all back together. But i did not really notice a difference. I still have to push a little far on the pedal before i start to stop. Anyone know why?

maybe some air in your brake lines? are you sure they were bled well? Maybe a weak master cylinder?

i plan on doing the bleed again. I changed the master cylinder four months ago when i got worried about the soft pedal and it did not help then.

Did you bench bleed the new master cylinder?

This might be a little late (just got back off of two weeks leave) but how well did you adjust the rears? Mine had to go out pretty far. QUICK response on the pedal.
