- Rear shoes (especially driver side) stay engaged against drum (i.e. drag/lock) after engaging the brakes with the brake pedal. Even after adjusting the shoes off the drum via the square head brake ad

- Take my word for this one. I had the same problem and replaced everything trying to fix it. Turned out to be the one thing I didn't replace. It's the flex line between the brake line on the car and

- Hey Tony - Thanks for the info/experience. The attempted adjustment I reference was done with the brake booster off the car (booster in/out lines are hooked together with tubing/fittings), but I didn

- Brad, I think Randy is right that this could be the answer. I had the same symptoms, which only got worse as time passed, on the front calipers on another car. Replacing the rubber hoses cured the pr

- You make a valid point; rubber brake hoses can do this. Been there, experienced that on another car. I have the stainless steel style hoses on my Tiger now. I also had another car that I could not g

- Thanks to all; I've had the drums off and inspected the shoes, etc., but hadn't considered the flexible line. All three (2 up front and 1 in back) are the stainless steel style and I don't know when

- The stainless steel hoses should not have this problem as far as I know. Check to make sure the rear wheel cylinders can float. They are in a slot and are suppose to float back and forth some. I wou

- Hi Brad I'm pretty sure that SS braided brake lines are Teflon lined... I know mine are. All my other (larger) ones are 'rubber' lined... Jim B382000446 Thanks to all; I've had the drums off and insp

- I have had the same problem with the flexable lines. While you are at it I would replace all three to save you a lot of future problems. Nick -- Original Message -- From: "Randy Smith" <RSSmithIQ@cs.
