Hello all, I have a question about brakes on the supra. I have had my supra sitting for about 2yrs solid same spot. I am in the process of dropping a new motor in it, so I *tryed* to move my supra... than tryed to tow the supra.. to no avail! seems all 4 tires will not move! the driveline is out of the ride, and im in the process of pulling my motor, so there is still brake fluid in the lines, do you think maybe somehow all 4 calipers are gripping on the rotors? or something is majorly rusted? I am going to remove the wheels tommorow to see whats going on? but maybe I need to release the pressure on the brakes? anyone have any ideas?

Your rotors have probably rusted to the point that they interfere with the pads. kinda like, they pads didn't move towards the rotor, but the rotors "grew" towards the pads. Make sense? Sounds dumb, but spray some wd40 onto the rotors, and next to the brake pads. You'll want to 'degrease' it off later.

automatic or manual? maybe its still in park :):):) but rusted rotors would be it. i'd opt for a new set of rotors :D
