Whooaa Truck!!!!
I put a power booster on my 70 GMC with drums all around. I get about four inches of pedal and then no more. It stops good until I run out of pedal. I've replaced all wheel cylinders and shoes. It doesn't feel like air, the pedal gets rock hard at four inches.
I plan on bleeding them again, but was hoping for some suggestions!

Do you have the correct proportioning valve?

Did you check the adjustment of the actuator rod between the booster and the MC? I know the adjustment is critical.

I didn't adjust between booster and m/c, I'll try that next.

Gotta luv the smell of tire smoke....if only when your slamming on brakes! At least I can stop now. Roadworthy (using that loosely!) again! Thanx stllookn for the tip. Now I gotta adjust my brake pedal back down, but at least I can stop now without getting a leg workout!
