When i bought (about 1 year ago) my 96 1/2 ton silverado it had no rear brakes. I took the rear apart and both cylinders were shot. I replaced them and brakes were good.

Yesturday morning i got in the truck and the brake light wouldn't go off. I had a very spongey pedal and not alot of brakes. When i got home i noticed two oil slicks in my driveway where my rear wheels are parked.

What would cause this truck to blow both cylinders at the same time again?

proportioning valve putting too much pressure to the rear?

I'm gonna replace both cylinders again but there is somthing more wrong than i know.
 
i think my drums are oversized and thats what's causing my issue.
anyway im replacing it all and we'll see.
