Hello everyone.

i went to take my 96 ex for a spin around the block when, to my dismay, i discovered that my left rear wheel was locked up.
what could be some possible causes for this?

 

brake drum locked up?
wheel bearing locked up?

 

okay.

could it even be my parking brake?
would that only lock the one wheel? or does it engage both?

 

it engages both, but one of your drums could have siezed up somehow

 

Have you checked the e-brake cables?

Also, change your sig. No nudity allowed on the forum. Thanks.

 

I had the same problem. I needed new brake shoes anyway, so I lubed up the e-brake cables as best as I could, installed a brand-new hardware kit with the new shoes, and lubed the heck out of all the pivot points and slide points. That seemed to help. There's a special brake lube that you can buy from NAPA or AAP or whatever.

 

alright, ill have to fix it this week.


thanks a lot for the help
