stuck rear brakes

Post by mterrens »

My Coupe developed a brake problem yesterday.
It seems that the brake on the right rear wheel has stuck, preventing the wheel from spinning freely.  So far I have jacked up the rear end and determined that the handbrake cables are moving freely.  The left wheel spins fine, the right rear needs a heavy push to move at all, and does not spin.
What is the procedure from here?  What are the likely suspects?  I do not have the tool for removing the "castellated" nut - can I improvise with something else?
Thanks much.  My Coupe awaits, rear end up on stands!
Steve
