I have been doing so many brake jobs this summer it is not even funny.
This problem is almost always the rear drums.  Get a new pair, pop them
on, adjust the shoes out to just touching, and you will have smooth
operation and high pedal.  Messing around with getting drums turned is
pointless unless you also are going to get the shoes cut to match.
Don't know too many places that still do this.

Hope this helps,
