Hi all,
I have a 1967 Series 2a that I have been trying to get on the road. I rebuilt the brakes - new master cylinder, new pipes and new wheel cylinders and shoes all round and the rear offside wheel sticks when I fill the system with fluid.
I'm thinking it's the wheel bearing or a problem with the differential but I'm hoping someone has an easier possiblity before I start trying to rebuild the axel.
As I am a complete amateur at this i probably haven't given enough information but some help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Tech questions will get the best response if you ask in this section-

Thanks!
Previously had a Hillman Imp that I could manage to fix when something went wrong but this is the first time I bought something that wasn't running.
A new battery and changing the points got the engine going.
Replaced the clutch slave cylinder but the clutch is stuck so I'm hoping that after I get the brakes sorted I can break it loose.
