So today I created a new pin that is the correct length. I did find it helped some but not as much as I hoped. I ran out of time for more troubleshooting but I did learn the rears are not working at all. After driving a bit and applying the brakes numerous times, I took a temperature reading on all six rotors. The fronts were hot and not touchable at 140+ degrees. All four rears were ambient at 100. That tells me I have the front working and need to troubleshoot the rear. I will apply the pressure gauge on the rear next.

This may have been mentioned, but I don't think you ever addressed it:

Do you have the system that has the brake calipers mounted such that they have to be unbolted from the backplate and rotated so that the bleeder is at the top, then bled, then returned to position, and bolted back on?
