Joe I have one 44 RTU that the breaks lock up when it sets for a while.  If you rock it backwards just a little bit, they usually break loose.  I bought a RTI parts tractor that had sat long enough for a 6' pine tree to grow up in and it broke loose enough to winch on a trailer.  

The breaks on these are hard to get to, but usually cheap to fix

I just got back from looking over an RTU that a friend of mine bought, along 
with an RTI w/a cab.  We were trying to figure out how to load them as hauling 
them to their new home is our goal for next weekend.  Anyway, the brakes on 
the RTU are set up.  Is there any trick to breaking them free that will say us 
alot of grief trying to load it?  It's in an akward location (behind a few 
trees) which adds to the adventure of the loading process.

Enjoy, Joe
