Rear brakes over heating

Discussion in 'Mech Tech' started by S1mon, Jun 28, 2015.

  1. went for a nice long run and found the rear wheels very hot when I stopped.

    Have adjusted everything and been for a test run. Should my brake drums still be getting hot? If I stick my finger thru the hole in the wheel?
    Handbrake on 4 clicks
    Wheels spin free slight scratchy noise on rotation.


    Thanks

    How much braking did you do before you stopped and checked it ?
     
  3. When I found the problem was on an a road for 20 miles no braking ish

    Locally the average. I'll try a run down the motorway tomorrow
