John,
    See my comments below:

<< Here's the thing that I cannot figure out....  After checking the brake
 adjustment (they were not out of adjustment) and bleeding them, I depressed
 the brake pedal with a broom stick and held it depressed while I tried to
 turn by hand the front wheels.  With the brakes depressed slightly by the
 broomstick, I found that the right and left wheels turned with the same
 amount of resistance WHEN TURNED BACKWARDS.  However, when I tried to turn
 the front wheels in the forward direction, the RIGHT WHEEL seemed to BIND
 and increased rkß•e to the point that it was almost impossible to
 turn.  Where as the left front wheel turned in the forward direction with
 about the same amount of resistance that both wheels had when turned
 backwards.  What would cause this? >>
  
   Are the shoes instsalled & seated properly?
