Hope someone can help asap. Long-time listener, 1st time caller....
'95 Ranger 4x4, 2.3 5-spd
Right rear was hanging up off & on, then got bad enough the car wouldn't move forward. Rolls back fine. Wiggled & jerked the cable & got it to turn, but still hung up off & on. Wheel off, drum off, axle turns fine either way. Drum on - turns backward, forward - stops DEAD, metal on metal. I can pull the drum partway off & it turns fine both ways, drum on 1/2 or more, stops.
I'm at my wit's end. Brakes were done not long ago, all new hardware (still shiny, shoes good, drums look like they were replaced too). Nothing scraping, no loose rust flakes, no visible signs of any rubbing or interference, but drum off - turns fine, drum on - stops dead.....
HELP!!!!
Thanks-
Randy
