After installing new new Turtle Racing rear plate with brake plate, I experienced some binding in the brakes. After rotating the drive train, it seems to bind after one turn then frees up a bit then bind again. I pulled the disks, pads and caliper and everything is free. Granted the transmission is new and repacked with Lucas Oil marine grease so its smooth but has some obvious resistence because of the grease. I have ruled out the transmission, outdrives and the lay shaft is straight. The TR plate is seated properly and everything is lined up nice. The problem is narrowed down to the brake system and possibly the bearing carrier under the brakes. The truck is ready for a break in but this last issue is keeping my in the garage. I love a challenge don't get me wrong but I am also happy to take advice. Any thoughts?
I followed Fast Eddie's video on installing the TR plate to include dremeling the motor mount as he indicated.
