    FMTV wheel locked

    Thank you all for the advice. Caged brakes + BFH + getting the truck off of gravel and down to the road and driving forward and back ~10 times finally broke the wheel free.

    FMTV wheel locked

    Both cans are cages, pads have been whacked. Anything else it is likely to be? If not, I will take it down to the asphalt and drive back and forth a bit and see if it will break free.

    FMTV wheel locked

    Yes, both forward and reverse ~150- ft. on gravel. If it is just the pad rusted to the drum I can take it out on pavement and see if that breaks it free. Didn't know if there was something else going on and don't want to break something if I don't have to.

    FMTV wheel locked

    My 1083a1 has been parked for a few months. Went to move it today and the middle right (passenger) wheel is locked. The other 5 turn but mid right drags without turning. Caged the brake on that side and still no luck. Has anyone experienced this before? Any idea what to check?
