If you adjust it too much the brakes will not release after a few times of applying the brakes. It was a trial and error adjustment for me
I'd assume that if the rod were too short, the front brakes also wouldn't work? The rod is definitely not too long, as I can turn the front rotor by hand, but can't after the brakes are applied.

The pushrod between the booster and the master is correct. I confirmed with CaptainFab, they are both shallow configuration, so are a match.
