Braking system

We have had the problems with our brakes since June 2014
At start of day the brakes work satisfactory, then by the end of the day, we have to put our foot to floor for the truck to enable us to stop.
We changed our master cylinder in September, then recently we changed our brake drums and shoes.
Soon after we changed drums, the problem arose again
Our mechanics believe its our master cylinder again.
After 9 months???

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
