When the brakes are wet or cold the passenger rear brake locks up. I have replaced the following : shoes, hardware, adjusters, wheel cylinders, and drums. Bled all brake lines, took great pains to evenly adjust the "adjusters", even backed off on the driver' side adjustment (driver side brake has never locked up), I had even measured the drums after they were machined to try to insure eveness, and the passenger side still locks up. Any other ideas?
Bad PROPORTION VALVE ... the back brakes should only be doing 30% of the stopping with a bad proportion valve it will send more pressure to the back during braking and cause it to lock up. Good Luck and thanks for using FIX YA

That doesn't explain why the driver side rear brake is working properly and it doesn't explain why the problem dissappears once the brakes warm up and dry off.
MY REAR BRAKES BRAKE MORE THA THE FRONT BRAKES BUT IT SEEMS THAT THEY HAVE A LOCKING EVECT WHEN LDV HAS BEENSTANDING FOR A WHILE. I HAVE REPACED THE SHOES AND THE DRUMS WERE SKIMMED, AND STILL IT IS THE SAME, CAN IT BE THAT THE REAR LOAD SENSOR HAS TO BE ADJUSTED, IT DOES IT WITHOUT ANY LOAD, CAN THE ADJUSTER BE SET TO SENSITIVELY
