Well, I found out why I had a stuck rear wheel (see thread with drum screws). There was such uneven wear on the rearmost shoe, the top of the shoe was worn all the way thru the rivets almost to the metal backing, and the bottom looks like it was hardly touched. A piece of the lining from the top broke off and wedged itself on the lower end of the shoe, locking up the wheel.
Now for the thousand dollar question....
What would make a shoe wear in such a pattern? The opposite shoe is worn evenly, as is both shoes on passenger side rear. No rust inside the drum, nor is there any grease or brake fluid leaks. Nothing appears to be bent or missing.
Could this be just an improper set up when the shoes were installed? I would hate to intall new shoes and have the same thing happen.
