So it been 2 months since i did my rear drums. When i drive and the radio is off i hear this cycling rubbing noise. At first i thought maybe my bearings where bad but I couldn't tell exactly where the noise was coming from. It only happens while moving . It doesn't seem to grind or get much worse when i apply the brakes. I'm thinking my Rear brakes where adjusted to tight. I had Les Schwab rotate my tires and check everything. They said everything looked good and that the back brakes where a little to tight. And that they should brake in with in about 1000 miles.. Well its been 3000 miles. Is there a easy way to loosen them? I'm thinking i have to take off the tire and drum and pull out the metal stop and spin it one way once or twice on both tires. I really don't want to take it all apart again but the noise is bugging me. If that's it. They also said my shocks are original and should be replaced because they are old. I have have 280,000 miles on it. I bought it with 80,000. But i was told they are good still when i got my new tires 2 months ago. Should i replace them just because? And how about the bearings, same thing??
