    What causes brakes to drag

    I am guessing since you have a cobra m/c in there the back brakes drag-Rear caliper take more force to move than brake drums thus the need for a bigger m/c since you dont have rear calipers yet maybe you are overloading the wheel cylinders with too much pressure??? Just a thought, Duane
