Default Brake Grab

I have a 98 Au XR6 and I am experiancing brake grab on the rear brakes. I have replaced the master cyclinder and replaced the pads, has anyone elese had this problem and what is the likley cause? is it likly to be the lines (what should I look for) or are the calipers the likley fault.

The car has 220 on the clock.

It will be rust in the calliper bores/piston. Got to a brake place and get a calliper kit and either fit it yourself or get them to do it - cost should be $50 if you do it, $250 if they do.
