Answer
Replied on January 2, 2008
the problem will be either an issue with the rear shoe springs not retracting the brakes, faulty adjusters turning on when brakes applied or residual brake line pressure caused by a faulty master cylinder, incorrect pedal adjustment or a faulty proportioning valve also check for a faulty rear brake hose, it is possible that the internal lining of the hose is failing internally, causing a valve like reaction retaining rear brake pressures to stay high.
