Unfortunately, I also lost the bottom nut on my shock on that side, so I had to 'jerry rig' that with a lock nut, washers and rubber grommets. |

Re: Brakes lock up
It's not that old of a thread... and yeah... it took me 3 adjustments, a new set of shoes,
and a lot of head scratching before I saw the scratch marks on the axle tube from the U bolts! It was just about 2 years after I put a 6" lift on it, and just for the heck of it, I decided to check the tightness of the U bolts... I got a least 2 full turns out of all of the nuts! and then, no more brake lock-up! |
