7245 Lockup in Reverse??

[ausgado]

Problem with a zetor 7245. Left Rear wheel locks up after turning 1/3 to half a turn in reverse.
Tractor goes forward in all ratios in 2WD and 4WD. Has nothing to do with gears as it happens free wheeling in reverse. My thoughts are the brake lining may be loose. Any ideas???

Hi
Most lickely the brake shoe is binding on its pivit bolt so the linig is draging, or migt one of rhe pistons in the brakesylinder is rusted.

Thanks for that. Major job to fix???
for now am moving forward to unlock, seems to free up if warm or hot.
Any further clues would be appreciated. Cheers

brake lining fell off, glides with when going forward but binds in reverse.
