Hey all. Just wondering if anyone has come across an issue such as this. I just re did all my brakes. Front and rear. New everything. All was going well until I smelled the tell tale stank of hot metal. Its my rear right (pass side) drum. Overheating. Other side is fine. When I pulled to inspect I found cracked shoes both primary and secondary (less than A month old) and an axle seal leak. Brake is NOT out of adjustment and the star adjuster is back all the way to full slack. I don't get any rolling reaostamve when I block the truck and let the wheels go. My question is this;
Has anyone heard of diff fluid causing brake shoes to swell? I cannot for any issues at all that would cause the overheating.
Thanks in advance yet again gang!
