Brakes problem
1993 Ford Ranger 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual

I have replaced all new rear brakes in my truck and the one side seems to lock up and drag going forward. When I spin the wheel while on the jack there is no resistence rolling backwards, but then there is when I spin it forward?Do I have the shoes backwards or something?

Hello,

It is a possibility. I would suggest you take the other side off and look at it and compare the problem side.

Take a look at each part especially the steel bar at the top that goes between the shoes. Also check the e-brake components.
