Parking brake began to seize up. Upon leaving home for work I released the parking brake and heard a "thump" as forward motion began. After my work shift, I started to leave for home but the truck would not move. The right rear wheel would spin (left rear wheel frozen) and the transmission would shift between P, R, N, D, 2, L etc but would not move. Could not push the truck even in neutral. Suspected parking brake line frozen w ice or rust. Tapped gently on parking brake cable and banged on inside left rear wheel drum brake with hammer and chunks of rust fell out. Was able to put in gear and drive away after this.
