Hey all,

I just finished a rear brake job on the '85. Calipers, rotors, e-brake shoes.

Everything has been running fine, but i noticed some (what I thought was) strange stuff when testing the rear e-brakes.

With the rear wheels in the air and engine running...

-When I put the car in drive, only the *left* wheel turns easily
-When I put the car in reverse only the *right* wheel turns easily

When the car is off and the transmission is in neutral, the wheels take approximately the same torque to rotate.

(I have quadruple checked my brake job e-brake adjustments per the FSM)

Am I just observing normal rear wheel drive behavior or is something up?

Thanks,
dd
