    Default brake hell :/

    SO what was supposed to be an easy install brake lines and install new front pads and rear shoes turned into a break off rear bleeder plug time. THEN none of the brakes would bleed. The master cylinder just gurgles...btw the entire reason i did this is my brakes started getting really soft. so I thought I\'d check the drums to see what was up since they have alot to do with pedal feel. The self adjuster wedge was sitting in the bottom of the drum. O_o Master cylinder??:pinch:

    The only drums I know are the ones that make noise when you hit them with a wooden stick. I know nothing about brake drums, I\'ve never had a car with\'m. Good luck :S
