Strange brakes
 
Anybody have any idea how to stop the front brakes from dragging? It's not a lot of drag but it's not like Lamb brakes that don't seem to even touch the rotors at all when the wheel is free spinning.

contact strange, i believe they have an o ring kit for the caliper pistons that will reduce or eliminate drag.

I have put springs between the brake shoes to push them apart.

I did that also, doesn't take much of a spring, just something to make sure the pads retract away from the rotor.

Where does the spring go? Is it on the bolt that holds the pads in place?

What is it really worth in ET? Just a question. The way I've always understood brake drag is that the little bit of bearing clearance would work it out. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Don't know if these would work but I just saw them posted on another site.

Those are the same as the OEM springs on my Nissan Titan.
