Funny story, Yesterday I back the 2a out of the garage, and there is a definite bind, somwhere in drive train.
Serious bind, car does not want to move. Left rear is skipping as I pull back into garage. Thought I might have toasted the rear pumpkin, so drop drive shaft, pull axles, and spin flange at pumpkin, rear diff is fine spins nicely, no residue or metal in 90W. Left rear tire still solid as rock. Think wheel bearing, pull tire off drum is solid will not move, so pull drum off hub spins like butter, hmm. Drum unusually tough to get off, put drum back on, will not spin. Remember I forged a deep water crossing before parking truck. Problem, new rear brake pads swollen so much from water, binding against drum. Problem solved, clean drum, skuff pads with emory cloth replace all parts,
Problem solved,
