Brake hop

Question. 1994 f150 xl scsb 2wd About brake hop from rear I replaced the rear drums shoes and all springs and cylinders also replaced rear shocks. Front has new springs and shocks with all new steering upper and lower ball joints inner and outer tierods and attaching pieces also new calipers rotors pads and bearings. When cruising no problems hitting the brakes the whole rear hops mostly when at 50+ mph coming to a stop around town not at all I confirmed it does it when I use the emergency brake as well wondering if it could be the rear springs possibly binding I see no cracks in them or separation. I do have bad bushings on the springs which will be next on the replacement list as well as the u joints but the rear wheel hop is pretty bad any info would be awesome.

I would remove the drums and take them to a place that turns drums and have them checked for out of round. I have heard a lot of NEW drums are out of round.
