Soft Brake Pedal to Floor on 4 Wheel Drum Manual Brake System - 69 Charger

Update on my post, . I ended up checking my wheel cylinders for leaks after a suggestion and sure enough they where leaking with rust. I changed all 4 wheel cylinders, all hoses plus MC for good measure and purged all the old fluid. Bleed and adjusted and they seem fine now. What an ordeal though.... Not happy with the aftermarket wheel cylinders and hoses. Wish it was the old days when everything was USA made....

Update on mine also.. all wheel cylinders were seeping to some degree. Why, after 11 yrs of driving this car all of the sudden after sitting over the winter this would suddenly be so noticeable idk. The picture is one of the rear ones. All were replaced and the issue is thankfully resolved.

By the way, if you’re buying new drums, don’t expect them to be perfect. My new raybestos ones had to be turned extensively right out of the box because they were so out of round.
