[Chrysler300] Master Cylinder / Brake Pedal Problem

[<josh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

  Hello guys.

  I rebuilt the brake system on my 1958 300D (Manual Brakes).  I ended up with a new brake cylinder from Kanter.   After installation I noticed the pedal almost went to the ground.  I don't think it's air.  I bench bled the M/C and pressure bled the lines and wheel cylinders several times.  

  The brakes stop normal and hold, but the pedal has to travel near the bottom.  

  I adjusted the shoes several times, they seem to be adjusted as per the manual.  

  I was also able to extend the pedal shaft which helped some... but it's maxed out to where I still have sufficient thread.


  ANY IDEAS, I must be doing something wrong????   THANKS!!!!
