My left brake seems to be grabbing with much less force than my right brake.  Probably need to pull the drums and pads and replace them but I think I should also test the brake pressure at each wheel.

What is the normal air pressure at each wheel supposed to be?

Thanks C
Jon

If it's a YAK, check the tightness on the air line fittings on the brake assemblies.

Brake pressure for a Yak is the same since both the Yak and CJ use the same brake reducing valve.

But before you start delving into a pressure problem, pull the wheel and check the drum to make absolutely sure the drum's rear felt grease seal is not damaged or missing. A damaged or missing rear grease seal causes grease to sling outward from the bearing and all over the brake pads. A telltale sign is grease mixed with brake dust all over the plate behind the rear bearing.
