Re: Rear Hub Issue



Sure like to see whats going on with the drum off.
The only idea I have is to tighten the brakes when it first starts to bind, stop. Drive the car, not far. Stop and check the wheel to see if its hot. If it is real hot let it cool and try again. Maybe you can wear off the high spot.
If the wheel does not get hot you are OK
This is a real country boy fix if it works.

Subject: Rear Hub Issue

I re-bled the brakes using a Chrysler reccomended method and adjusted
the rears all the way in .  I gained pedal.

When I adjusted the rears to just a little drag I lost some pedal.
Quite a bit.  One side can be adjusted fine. The other can't.

I think the problem is the drivers side I can not adjust in very far
as when I spin the drum it sticks really bad in one spot.  Even with a
slight adjustment in it gets really hard to turn then once past that
spot it spins free-er until it hits it again. So I had to leave it
pretty loose.

If I could adjust that drum I'm pretty sure I'd gain pedal.

Warped drum?  I've read they don't make these drums anymore?

Guess I have to find the rare puller and try to take that drum off?

Here's one puller I found: Good one? http://www.chrysler300club.com/rcmstuff/fairbanks/puller.html
