Hello,

Long time lurker with a problem.

'71 C/10 2WD SWB
Power brakes
Power steering

She is having some rear brake issues. All the bias, it seems, is going to the rear and locks up the wheels when I brake. There is a loud, ominous noise from the rear drums when I brake and when I remove the drums, hot to the touch, the shoes are actually blistered. I've never seen this before. I've replaced the rear brake cylinders and the mater cylinder thinking that was my problem, but it persists. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Kindest Regards,

Seth

here she is
