The 89 did not have disk brakes right? If that is in fact true the master cylinder is set up for disk front and drum rear. You will have to change out the master cylinder for disk all around. It is sending to much pressure to the rear and they are probably locking up.

Just a guess, hope it helps.

what we are thinking is that we never got a wheel alignment after because we did use the whole back end of that car almost so we are going to try a 4 wheel alignment done

You did not get an alignment because you used the entire back end?

But now you are going to get a 4 wheel alignment?
