Sorry for > thinking out loud. :) Okay, since these special adapters are coming with the gasket sets now, lets all of us remember that the GREEN SEALS ARE SPECIAL. So we won't use them unless we actually need them. > Hopefully th1Ø×înd or next week, I can lift all four corners of my car > and take care of the front brakes and rear end.

Make sure that your brake pedal is always coming ALL the way back to the stop when you release it. If its pivot is rusted and preventing this it will sometimes give the odd pedal travle symptoms that you describe. One of the best tests for many kinds of brake problems is to feel each disk/drum after a bit of a drive. If you have one that is so hot that you burn your finger on it, there's your problem.
