NZplus six. Yes brakes are brakes & agree this can be sorted. My 4/4 has a completely different system but exhibited similar symptoms re brake travel. It transpired that somehow race spec rear shoes had been fitted. Also the auto adjusters were badly set up. Hence the peddle travel was caused by having to expand the shoes & then not a lot of friction as normal driving, does not really heat up the rears.
How all this came about is still a mystery as I have the invoices for standard shoes not race spec.
Anyway it was all sorted free of charge by the garage owner. Really interesting in how quickly he disassembled & rebuilt the rear brakes, without removing the hubs. But they do support some well known race teams.
