The left pedal has a good inch of depression. Is there too much fluid
in the right system? Can air in the system cause a hard pedal? I
thought air in a system creates a mushy pedal. Any help or ideas are
much needed and appreciated.

Mark,
Glad to hear you're close. To troubleshoot right brake, cut the system
in half. Get a helper, disconnect the right brake line at the wheel.
Pump the brake and see if you have a good fluid flow. If so, check to
see why you get no movement on the brake assembly. Air in the line
makes for a soft peddle. Sounds like you have a line restriction
somewhere, master cylinder too full???( not sure why that would cause a
problem) , or a jammed puck at the wheel. It is a fairly simple system
and shouldn't be too difficult to find the issue. My guess is the
problem is at the wheel.
Good luck and happy flying...........
