Pull the drums and check the rear shoes. Just finished sons 95 pedal was spongy, new rotors and pads on front, new master cylinder, bled system still now improvement. Rear brakes were completely worn out, down to metal on passenger side but no noise. Did new drums and shoes finally problem solved. Hope this helps. If your parking brake goes way down its a indicator of worn out shoes on rear.
