I have a problem with my truck. When driving the truck seldom but this has happening more on a reoccuring basis the right rear tire will lock up. I have checked the brakes and bearings and both are good. This happens as I am driving the truck whick makes it extremely dangerous and I would like to get it fixed. Usually the lockup comes with a bang. It then stops the truck because the wheel is locked up. If I switch between drive and reverse the wheel will unlock then I can continue on my way. Do you have any Ideas of what would cause this lock up of the wheel?

Hi:
Do you hit the brakes when this happens?
