seized hub!
ok so i have a 1994 civic si coupe
today i went to start it to give it a good drive and the passenger rear tires refuses to spin.. im guessing the hub is seized but i will confirm that 2morrow when there is light and i take the drum apart and so forth
but does anyone know how to fix this problem? i just need it to spin so i can drive it. like what could be the possibilites of the things that are seized?
the car has been sittin in the driveway for a little over a year now but last month it wasnt seized when i went to drive it

most likely the shoe is seized to the drum...hit that **** with a hammer a few times, pop the drum off and adjust the shoes abit...put the drum back on and rotate till it moves freely...my vw rabbit did this when it sat for a while...the hammer trick worked like a charm
