Parking brake may not be right?
Rebuilt passenger side parking brake after an event that I wrote about here over the weekend (stuck rotor). New brake shoes, new hardware, new rotor. Adjusted parking brake 10 clicks out at the wheel adjuster. No drag when wheel is off and caliper is removed.
Reinstall caliper and wheel. Nothing unusual noticed while driving, but when I lift the rear and rotate the passenger wheel in the forward direction, it temporarily "locks up" in its rotation and needs a healthy push to get it through. Don't think it's the caliper, because it does the same without the caliper in place. As soon as I remove the wheel, it rotates freely.
After a 20 minute drive, rotor on the passenger side was 80 degrees higher (190 degrees) than rotor on the driver side (110 degrees).
What's the possibility this is just the new parking brake shoes bedding in to the rotor? Any other thoughts? Thanks!
