1953 3800.
I seem to have a problem with my rear brakes. For some reason they are locking up after a short drive. It's almost like the parking brake is on. Has anyone else had this problem? All new shoes and hardware. Now that the weather is better I'm planing on getting out and pulling the drums to see if anything looks off. My roads are VERY rough, and I'm worried that all the bouncing around is messing things up.

Any advice or suggestions welcome.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur ( https://timwhiteblues.imgur.com/ ). I live way back in the woods in the Ozarks on 40 acres at the end of a 2 1/2 mile private road.
