If you had the brakes changed recently, and it was at a shop...take it back and have them find the prob and fix it.
If you did the work your self, then start with the emergency brake linkage and operation. Sounds like something is binding up. E-Brakes, (at least in my experience), grab more in reverse than in forward. You can still move the truck forward but in reverse, it grabs more and holds the truck.
