I saw this in an old post any one else besides me have one? My Right brake sticking, after parked I have to lock Diff to get it free once broke loose it will roll till parked again put right pedal is frozen. Was told to adjust assuming I had dry brakes found no adjuster. I checked and appears hydro/tran fluid low. Will topping off free brake pedal? Any suggestions? Below is thread on wet brakes.

Ray no adding hydro fluid on a 2000 won't help the brake.Your adjustment is the brake shaft/rod.Loosen the locking nuts and the middle adjuster will move.In hence making the shaft longer or shorter do both sides/pedals equally.If the pedal is sticking first I would grease the pedal shaft and then as California stated earlier the shaft going into the housing plate may be dirty or you might have to remove it to have looksee inside.

If they have never been apart. Take them apart. Probably all rusty / gunk inside the drum.. I think that's the case on most... I don't think you have wet brakes on that mod.
