could be the bearing?

Hi:
Are you refering to the rear brakes? Have you removed the wheel and drum to check if anything is broken?

Hi:
If everything is new except the bearing, check it for play and check the spindal for wear. Also, check the rear axle for bushing problems.

Please let me know what you find. I would like to know if it's the bearing.
