I've owned my tr6 for about 5 years now and have never done much with 
the brakes. (Almost everything else, but not the brakes) 

Lately, I seem to be using more and more foot pressure to stop the car 
now than i ever did before.

There's no noise, Ive checked the pads and shoes and they are fine. 

I am planning to go through the entire brake system this winter 
* turn drums and roters
* flush and refresh fluid
* replace all flexible hoses
* new wheel cylinders
* etc etc 
but I would like some suggestions to the current symptoms before 
assuming my usual case of shipwright's disease 

TIA
