Have a problem with right rear brake dragging. Smell of hot brake after a long drive and right rear wheel much hotter to touch than the other three Replaced wheel cylinders that were not moving easily and slightly leaking, and adjusted brakes. No improvement. Turned drums. No improvement. Lubed the back plate to make sure side of brake shoes moved easily against it. No improvement. Springs and brake shoes are correctly installed, look okay and are less than 3 years old with less than 1,000 miles total. Adjust the brakes to where drums slip on pretty easily over brake shoes and still have the problem.
Any other suggestions? The parking brake seems to release okay.
Thanks!
