If they're drums then the parking brake may be stuck. If the drum is frozen then back off the adjuster tap on the drum with a hammer and it should come off. You'll have to work it back and forth while pulling but it should work. __________________ '77 MGB roadster Previous vehicles: '47 Studebaker M-5 truck '67 Ford Fairlane 500 '78 Ford Bronco “There’s nothing so small or insignificant that it can’t be turned into a major project.” -S.
