Did you change the rubber brake lines too? They can swell up and cause many problems with the brakes not releasing and dragging.

It all looks great!
 
Hoses seemed to be ok at this point. Brakes work well and there was plenty of material in the shoes and pads. I will be getting back into them prior to inspection and tags to clean and paint but no signs to be concerned of at this time. Thank you. Today is drop the leaking oil pan day and check the rear seal. I have a new oil pan I and gonna undercoat that as well to extend its lifespan. I'm glad she fits in the garage. Makes it warmer to work on this time of year lol.
