In preparation for the first race of the season, it was time to check over the trailer.
Found one trailer brake dragging. Four axle trailer, disk brake on one axle, hydraulic overrun. Stripped caliper, found slides seized and piston stuck. Noticed that it had not been working properly for some time, as disk had unequal wear.
Cleansed all up, now slides great. Installed, still drags. Plenty of free play at master cylinder, other side does not drag. Releasing bleeder makes no difference.
Fit all new seals, as I thought they are not retracting piston enough.
Put all back together - getting good at this now - but still drags. It is not a lot of drag, you can still spin the wheel with your hand, but there is a noticeable drag. Using a screwdriver allows the piston to be pushed back in, and this totally frees it up.
Any ideas?
