RE: Brake lock up LXI
There is much to share and when able mark and I plan to put this together with Pics. Turns out the slack adjuster on the street side was the cause of the brake lock up . we were lucky as it was determined that only the brakes, slack adjuster, seal and Tire needed to be replaced . the brakes did not weld themselves to the drum and it was determined the drum was not damaged . as to the curb side the seal, adjuster and brakes were replaced .
It was brought to our attention that the slack adjusters have been improved , we will post and detail these findings on a future post . In the morning we plan to replace the front slack adjusters which are different from the Tag . This could be due to my tag being a steerable . Parts numbers will also be posted .

The bottom line here is this can happen to anyone no mater how often you walk around with your IR or back of your palm . the best cure would be to change out your SA with new ones. IMHO.

All mechanical work was done by a reputable and highly recommended shop . we will post contact info upon job completion .
