I am replacing both rear drums on my 79 F150, including new hardware and new shoes. I have everything assembled, but when I put the new drum on and torque the wheels, its locked up. Both sides do this, the driverside a little worse than the passenger.
I can turn the tires if I really try, but wouldn't feel good about driving it for fear of the drums burning up. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Is there any such thing as off-brand drums being the wrong tolerance?
