Wish I could post pics, but have never figured it out (I am technologically challenged! ). I was thinking of that possibility a couple hours ago and pulled the drums off just to check. Everything looked good to me and both sides looked the same. (I did one side at a time, also had a manual for reference).

Now I'm wondering if a bad wheel cylinder could somehow cause the problem....

I also just tried opening the rear hose so I could block off the wheel cylinders and then test. Could not break the connection and it's soaking in penetrating fluid right now.
