1). 2). There's not much to go wrong. 2 rubber o'rings on a brass piston and not much else. Are both rear brake dragging? If only one, then it can't be anything upstream of the rear brake line (the one that goes from the valve to the rear). If it's only one brake, sounds like the caliper may be bad?
Duke,
Thanks for your help.
It is only the one rear pass. side caliper dragging. What's interesting is that this is the same dragging condition that happened once a few years ago. And at that time it was at the pass. rear caliper that was dragging. However, since then I recently replaced that caliper. Actually it was only about two months ago.
From other input I have received I have already purchased two new rear hoses and will install them in a few days. That way I can cut open the old rubber brake lines and see what the internal diameter really looks like.
kudos to Duke. It's great to have knowlegable people on board willing to share their wisdom.
This surely must be among the best groups of folks on the net.
