I would pull the hub/drum together. Most time, the inner seal needs replaced and bearings cleaned/repacked from sitting around. If it's a front wheel, do a knuckle rebuild also. If it's the rear, the outter lock nut will probably be worn and seal will need replacing, bearings cleaned/repacked. If one is leaking, do all four. Replace brake lines and rubber brakes hoses. I know this sounds like a lot, but if the truck has been sitting around for years, it will be well worth it so you can have good dependable brakes.
