Again, my many thanks to all who responded to the timing questions. Fred  
sent a VERY helpful pdf file that helped me do the trick. 
I had a problem with the rear brakes sticking, I have new lines, master and  
wheel cylinders. They have been bled. 
I realized that the only problem could be the springs.  I say this as  they 
are fine until I actually depress the pedal, then the wheels will only move  
under motor power, not by hand . In trying to attach them properly, or what I  
think is properly I'm runnning into yet another quandary. 
The spring nearest the adjuster, I believe goes into the second hole of the  
top shoe , and the 1st hole of the bottom, correct? Is is the same for the  
spring near the wheel cylinder? I've done it in varying combination and the  
shoes just arent sitting right. 
Again, much appreciation to all who respond both on list and direct.
