Does the truck still move in reverse, or does it stop completly? It does sound like your brake shoes are binding up. I would take them off and see what they look like. Might be in need of some shoes and maybe turning your drums.

Hi XXXX402 
Ok,ok I guess I shouldn't bug you too much about the first part of your name
I would pull the rotors off the back and take a look at the park brakes. There is a drum inside the rotor and seperate brake shoes for the park brakes.
Lately I've seen quite a few become delaminated...the lining falls off the shoes.
If the lining got jammed up it could cause your problem.
Also take a look at the park brake lever inside the rear brakes to make sure it or the cable isnt hanging up.
Please let us know what you find.
