It has been one of those summers for the TR6. Almost to the point of wanting to

<br>

Today's problem is a left rear drum that is locking up under braking. I went
to push the 72 out of the garage (after releasing the e-brake) and found the
brakes locked up on the left rear side. We got her to finally move by rocking
her back and forth. Everything seemed to be fine until I stopped quickly on a
drive. That side locked up. Under slow normal braking it is fine. Suggestions?
