    Ed my grand daughter had one that she had bigger wheels & tires put on & it would start dragging after a bit to the point that the wheel would burn you if you touched it. Went back to the normal tires & wheels & never done it again & put a lot of miles on it without another issue at all. Made me wonder about it screwing with the proportioning valve & wonder if that could be what's causing your wheel to drag or just a caliper slightly sticking which is more likely.

    rebuilt old trucks back when , 55 thru 57 chevy pick ups and panel trucks in that age range ....
    lots of brake problems on them old things till you replaced or rebuilt all the brake parts ....
    wheel cylinders , flexible lines, drums ,shoes and fresh clean fluid flushed a few times will often cure it ....
    looking pretty sharp mister , best put a theft deterrent dead switch on it .... just saying ...
