My 1975 spit has weak rear brakes. If I drive it on
gravel, I can relatively easily lock up the front but
no amount of pedal locks up the rears. I have
replaced the rotors and pads on the front. Replaced
the rear shoes and turned the drums. I have rebuilt
the master cylinder and pdwa. I have bleed and
adjusted the brakes many times. I have looked at the
rears over and over and can't seem to find anything
wrong. The cylinder moves and the adjuster seems to be
working properly.
The parking brake does not hold very well, but I'm
thinking that that may be a streetched cable. Anyone
out there got any ideas. I'm a little stumped right
now.

ps I recently got help from the list rebuilding my
PDWA. With help, I was able to determine that the
switch was bad and now it works properly.
