Just relined the brakes - With the adjusters all the way in (shortest) the hubs will turn freely for several revolutions and then lock up. Hit the brake pedal and they release. This is happening on both sides. Checked, rechecked and double checked and everything appears correctly installed.
How important are the felt backing plate seals? I glued new ones in and the drums chewed them up and spit out a strip about 4-6 inches long. I ran the drums thru the electrolysis tank to get out the rust but there are a few pits in felt mating surface. Should I have lubricated the felt or filled in the pits with JB Weld?
