I'm new to the site so I thought I would start my first thread and ask about my car. My car would not start so I kept push starting it. I fixed the starting problem but went I was pushing the car it felt like the clutch was half engaged. The car was out of gear so I think its brakes or trany?

Sorry I noticed it was hard to push when pushing before it was fixed. I know the car is probable 3200lbs but my bronco is much easer to push. I will get it on stands and check the wheel bearings and brakes but when I bought it 2 weeks ago I looked them over and they seemed just fine. Could it be something else?

I wired in a 30amp relay so the starter would get juice. It's still hard to push. It is some kind of mechanical bind.

The supra is the kind of car that if you parked on level ground with the parking brake off, and leaned on it, it won't budge.
Maybe a sticky caliper as heavy man guessed.
oem, within the calipers the pads have little holes and this wishbone metal spring wire to help spread the pads back from the disc, that wire makes changing pads time consuming.
