Rear right brake shoe is dragging on my 1967 200D

I recently replaced a bad wheel bearing on the rear right wheel. The job went well thanks to a post on how to do it in this web site. The problem I am now having is that the brake is dragging. I loosened the parking brake linkage without any l luck. I also did the test to find out if the problem could be with the brake line, and it is not the problem. No matter what I have tried to do, the brake is always dragging. I compare the left side with the right and can find no difference. I am sure I put everything back the way it was before. I am thinking it is the brake cylinder possibly. I have had the car for 20 years, and had never changed it. The brake fluid was extemely dirty and I flushed it out and put new fluid in. I drove it for 30 miles the other day, and I could feel the hub cap was warm to the touch. I don't want to drive it until I solve the problem. Any help well be appreciated.
