I just did my back brakes. Had to replace both wheel cylinders. Bled the lines. There doesn't appear to be any more air in the lines, but I still have almost no pedal.....what's up?

I would try to bleed the lines again, you will probably find you still have air in the lines.Also make sure the brakes are adjusted properly and check to see if your dash brake light is on, it could be your proportioning valve might be stuck to on side.

re-bleed all four brakes.

Adjust the shoe to drum clearance while your at it.

adjust the rear drums so they will bearly go on then when you bleed the brakes start at the right rear then left rear then the right front and the left front when doing this fill the brake fluid each time ,and when the person pumping the brakes is helping they need to keep the pedal
ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR, hope this is the way your doing it, if not that is the problem

I figured out what it was. The brakes weren't adjusted. I feel like an idiot, but my brakes work.
