I've got an old cruiser with a china girl kit on it, that I picked up from someone at a garage sale. The rear wheel went out and I bought another one and when I was replacing it I had to take the wheel apart to get the sproket on the right side of the wheel because it wouldn't go around the coaster brake.
After I put it all back together the coaster brake is spinning with the tire and if it's tightened up the wheel won't turn forward at all so the brake is engaged. I haven't had a coaster brake since I was a kid, and I have no idea what I did wrong.
Anyone have any ideas?
On edit, poking around here, i think I'm going to have to modify or remove the dust cover.
