Try installing a set of new wheel cylinders...and while doing that, replace brake hardware, and the shoes should have some type of warranty, exchange them as "defective" while they are out. Also, as said before, double check the lug nuts after about 10 miles of driving. Also bleed them really good after installing the wheel cylinders

In a hurry working by droplight to get ready to go from MD to SC in the morning. Luckily? We, I mean they made it and were hauling a very large load of gravel for my, I mean their Uncle when the pliers reappaered.
