I'm having a problem with the rear brakes on my 1950 WD that I'm hoping someone can help me with.
At least three times now my I have tried to get the brakes adjusted properly (using both the owner's and shop manual's procedures), and they still don't work. If they are set where they should be, the left one locks up and starts smoking. If they are backed out at all, the brakes are essentially not grabbing at all. I would try to put new pads on, except I am afraid that will just make them grab even more. What am I doing wrong with this?
