Right rear brakes sticking??

Hi All!

I just experienced the right rear brakes sticking and locking up today.
I removed the drum and found the top pivot point/resting point was very loose. I took everything apart except for wheel cyl. and boy was it a pain, the threads were very tight and it was not screwed in all the way. able to put some heat and breaker bar on it and after cleaning the threads real good and after a few hours, its all back together and works fine now.
I noticed some grease in and around the shoes and springs, but nothing looked freash....hummm.....

just thought i would pass it on

Jeff
