Hello Patricia,
Have you checked the master brake cylinder reservoir for brake fluid loss?
I don't suspect the master cylinder as you have replaced it... but am more suspect of a leaking brake line or fitting which should have
been discovered when you had the system bled.
The only time I ever had a rear brake problem with a 2500 series Chevrolet was due to seized rear brake caliper guide pins...as your calipers are also new that is not your problem.
If your brake pedal feels spongy and travels to the floor board you have air in the system, a brake fluid leak or a failure in the power steering system, such as a broken hose, broken power steering pump drive belt, or failed pump, would result in a loss of pressure to both the hydro-boost and steering.

I have bled over a quart of fluid through the system. Still spongy at best. Had good pedal prior to replacing calipers, so I don't suspect the master.... But I cannot seem to get the air out, if it is there.
This still sounds like you have air in the system. I would bleed your brakes again and make sure that there is plenty of fluid in your master cylinder...
