Hot Left Rim

[fast400]

Hi,
I recently added posi to my BOP 8.2 rear axle. I added new gears, bearings etc. I set everything up according to the book. Obtained a good pattern. I took it for a little 5 mile test drive and everything looked good, but when I touch the Left Rim it's Hot. The Right one is barely warm. What's going on??

[NOT A TA]

Brakes. Maybe the wheel cylinder isn't retracting or the park brake cable not smooth and is holding it? Something along those lines is where I'd look.

Yep , check the brakes . Sounds like either the pads (or shoes )are dragging ..
Does the car pull to one side when driving ??

Brake are a set of new "right Stuff" disc conversions. Both wheels turn equally easy...
