Hi there,
I just purchased a Shasta 69 Stratoflyte trailer, and the brakes immediately started seizing up when driving away. The trailer has been sitting for several months, but new tires were put on in August and it was lived in full time prior to that.
The brakes weren't even connected to a battery or the car because we were using auxiliary lights knowing the brake wiring needs some work before using them.
They sounded like they were scraping and then they would seize up and what felt like brakes/resistance were applied even when we weren't braking the car.
Any ideas as to what to do to fix this? This is my first time owning any kind of RV or trailer so not a great way to be welcomed into the trailer world, but hoping I can find some help here. It's an adorable trailer, though, so hopefully worth it
Thank you!
Allie
