jacked the wheels off the ground to see where i was at
back two spin freely
front left rear spins but with a little rub-hopefully just adjusted tight or a little rusty between the drum and shoes
front right would not budge
put a wrench with a pipe ext. on a lug, still would not budge
opened the bleeder screw
massaged the wheel, lugs and axle slightly with a small sledge hammer and got her to turn but with a lot of rub
will try to continue to massage and bleed more, hopefully just a little frozen between drum and shoe and i get get all the brake springs to do their job and get her to spin free
curiousity was killing me as to where she was at, plus been awhile since i worked on
one
having a blast finding out and getting to know her
eventually i will rebuild or replace the mc and wcs and the lines and hoses
but wanted to at least see if i could get her to function as is, start her up and drive around the hood and show off
