Right rear wheel locking up

[WP29P4A]

I would take a couple reference pictures before taking it apart, and also verify placement of primary and secondary pad locations. I can't remember off hand where the long pad goes vs the short pad. But I know it matters.

Short shoe pad goes forward, always.

Since I just recently tore my axle down to a bare housing, you're in luck.
I've changed many drums, yet I always take pictures before I disassemble them to this day.

I always just pull both drums off, then look at the other side while replacin the first side's innards.
Sometimes I even have to go look at the first side again while doin the second one.

Things that bother me... PO that don't do maintenance on their vehicles.

I don't think those brakes were ever serviced. Maybe it's just me, but the brake cylinder only looks like it has one push rod for the front brake shoe and not both.

I think this is not necessarily in the case of drums which dont have self-energizing behavior but I would just be of the opinion to find out for sure based on what its doing because Some foreign drum brakes ive seen that are more modern developed have the entire mechanism and idea upside down and the primary shoe and secondary were different designs and the thicknesses were the same. from what the person said the ones he had were organic stock and the width of the material was less on one than the other and the parking brake setup was alien looking.

Basically, just never hurts to be sure.

The op posted photos. in the one I think he referenced it looks like the brake dust is clumped up on the thing and it makes it look like it doesnt have it on the right hand side of the 2nd pic(2nd pic of a post I scrolled up to, idk if it was 2nd overall)
