    Hi all. Been lurking for a while now and it has been educational. I have learned alot from reading all the posts. I am from Ohio and have a 30 Model A tudor sedan. I started working on it last May and it is almost read for the street. I am having problems changing it over to juice brakes. I have new Speedway hubs and drums all around. All fit well except the right rear. Every time I tighten the lug nuts, it locks the wheel up and it won't turn. Do I need to be looking at the hub or the drum? If I put the old drum on, it turns freely. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks again.

    If you haven't done so I'd start a new thread on the main page for your question. Waaaaay more people will see it

    Found the problem. Had 2" shoes on a 1 3/4" drum. Changed drums to Linclon style drums from Speedway and now it is much better. Now to get some clearance on my drag link. It is rubbing on the front cross member. Thanksguuys.
