Brake Troubles

I just did the front brakes on my '70 F-100. The passenger side went together perfectly and other than getting the hubs out of the old drums, the process for both sides was easier than I expected. However, now my driver's side brake seems to be stuck on. The adjusted is all the way in and everything looks to have gone together right but the drum was nearly impossible to get on and it still doesn't want to turn very well. The brakes were bled and still the same problem, could it be a bad wheel cylinder?
