After having a shop do the rear brakes on my 98 Ranger, my parking brake started sticking. I could rev up to about 3K, dump the clutch and usually they would let go. But then the brakes would be real grabby on the first use, upon leaving the parking lot. Took it back to the shop and they asked if I'd been parking it in water as everything was rusted. After they fixed it again it worked for a year of so, but now it's doing it again.
When trying to back out the other day it was stuck, and for some reason, before revving and dumping the clutch, I decided to try going forward. It easily moved the few inches before the tires hit the curb. After that it easily backed up just like it usually does.
I'm not taking it back to that shop...Any ideas on what could be the cause of this?
