Maybe not perfect, but much more like it should be.
Awesome! Now that the slave cylinders can push their brake fluid back into the master once the brake pedal is released, you'll want to re-adjust the shoes again.

Yeah, I had the same experience once I replaced all my brake components and got the system adjusted together properly (I had a bad master, worn shoes, drums out of spec, and needed new soft lines). Makes me think that all these people who want disk brakes because they "stop better" really just haven't gotten their drum brake systems up to snuff and adjusted properly. |
