So I did 5 lug to my 86 coupe. I got 95 spindles hubs rotors calipers and brackets and brake lines
In the rear I just swapped out the axels and drums
Also changed the rear wheel cylinders on both side
So my question is why are my brakes not working I bleed the lines and all. Do I need to change the master cylinder? Or what's the issue

Not sure how the 86 setup differs from the 87-93 setup if at all. I've done many 5 lug swaps to the 87-93 cars and all that is needed is what you have stated. SN95 Complete front spindle/hub/rotor/caliper etc, rear axles, rear drums. Bleed & go. I've never had a problem with a swap over so far.
I typically bleed the brakes from the furthest point to the closest point. You might just need more bleeding.
