I have posted a question about this proublem over a year ago and i was wondering if anyone had any new ideas to fix my problem. My 01 sport trac has the drum brakes in the rear. Everytime it rains or frost or any type of moisture in the air they lock up at slow speeds. I can barely apply pressure to the brake pedal and both sides will lock up tight until i release the pedal and instantly they let go. I have inspected the brake shoes sevral times as well as the drums. The adjuster is adjusted all the way in. I have no idea how to solve this proublem. It is getting very dangerous when it snows and such. If i get it up to 60 mph and hit the brakes easy it will not lock until it gets much slower. When it does slow down without locking you can feel the brakes grabbing at the drum. Through the summer i dont have this problem unless it rains. Anyone have any ideas?
