The right rear brake locks up then unlocks in a continous pattern as I apply the brakes.I have replaced the pads,drum, cylinder and springs. but still nothing works. Also parking brake not engaged

I'm not sure what else could be the problem unless it is the proportioning valve in your master cylinder, but that would also affect your left front brake somehow. If your car is a '92+ the ABS could be causing it, but there again you'd probably see the effects at another wheel, the left rear.

My right rear locks up also. Same as you mentioned. New pads,dums, cylinder. Just the one wheel.

Jeff P Yes my car is a 93 Beretta. How does a guy go about checking the proportioning valve?

I don't have a clue how you would check that out. If it were me I'd go to a brake shop (a place that only does brakes, not Midas or Jiffy Lube). Either that or just talk to the people at the shop and see if they'll throw out some ideas.
