check for worn brake shoes should be .125 thick or close to it or a worn out brake drum 8,74" max. if not that check for broken springs or shoes not returning to original position.

absolutely not it cold be a blockage in line to other side but not proportioning valve. recheck installation and make sure all springs and clips are hooked up correctly and brake shoes are seated correctly into slots so they can 't slip out.see pic. make sure spring holding two shoes to cylinder is not broken or weak.
