Greetings from the FL panhandle. I know this isn"t a tractor question but I"m hoping some of you can help me out. This is a C2500 diesel with over 200K miles. I recently replaced the front disc pads and calipers and the rear brake shoes. I did the usual bleeding and adding brake fluid as needed after bleeding. The problem we"re having is that the rear shoes are sticking/grabbing--they almost lock up at slow speeds. At first I thought the brake cylinders were the problem so I R&R"d those. I"ve gotten suggestions that the rear springs may be weak but that seems to be a long shot. I"ve never seen brake springs cause a problem (unless they broke). Other folks have suggested a bad master cylinder too. And I"ve also had problems with the front brakes sticking due to collapsed (internally) hoses, but near as I can tell, the rear brake lines on this one are all steel tubing. Last thing--I also checked for rear seal leaks--no evidence of any leakage. Anyone have any suggestions or advice? Thanks in advance.
