Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Bob, I don't remember having to shim the calipers, I'm pretty sure the calipers came from you guys already installed on the adapter bracket, so all we had to do was bolt the bracket onto the steering knuckle.

I'll take a look at the master cylinder the next chance I get. With the holidays around the corner, I'm not sure when that will be.

I'm using a valvoline (i think) synthetic DOT 3 or 4, it comes in a grey bottle.

I have not tried a pressure bleeder, if I can't find anything wrong with the master cylinder, and bleeding it again doesn't help, I'll go that route.

Do you guys have any sage advice on bleeding? pump them up before cracking the bleeder, don't, etc.
