Welcome to the site...

Could you provide a little more detail? Are you using the parking brake? What part of the country are you located? Is cold weather a factor? How long does it stick?

backing plate could be bent, and causing the brake shoes to be acting like a wedge. I had an 86 that was like that, and it drove me crazy until I figured it out
