|    Drum Brakes locking up on a 86 PU/Hilux    |
|    18 Feb 12 17:34:08    |
      From: rasta@dakine.com.invalid              I have an 86 Toyota 1/2 Ton PU/HiLux. The strangest thing is happening. I       had a brake cylinder leak in the Left Rear wheel. After replacing the brake       cylinder, cleaned out the brake fluid residue, and bleeding the brakes, it       will lock up after a full stop going forward. To get out of the full lock       up, I have to step on the gas to break the lock up and it will make a       humming squeal before going forward. It is fine in Reverse after a full       stop but not forward. The brake shoes and drum seem to be ok, and all the       other parts in the brake assembly are seem ok. The parking brake cable       seems to be working properly. I've disassembled the brake assembly a few       times and greased the joints, to no avail.              I've only seen this happen when the parking brake cable broke on Toyota       Corolla. The temporary remedy was to engage and release parking brake to       release the lock, then it can go forward. After replacing the parking brake       cable it was fine.              Anyone have any ideas?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
