Both @ soundman98 and @ strat61caster have valid points. Just have to figure out which is the culprit. |
I almost know for a fact that it’s the right side because it was smelling hot on that side. And it felt like it was dragging on that side. It’s fine right now I drove it and it was ok. From what I can tell. I don’t think it’s the caliper. I think it has something to do with the handbrake. So the shoes might be the culprit. Although, your idea is great. To see which side is the hottest. Also. I stopped using my handbrake and just leave it in first gear when parked.
The only thing I’m really concerned about is the brake light coming on when cornering hard.
