I just bought an older utility flatbed trailer. I soaked it with pb blaster and repaired the air lines. The wheels are locked. I think the shoes have rusted to the hubs. Any suggestions to break them free?
Trailer wheels are locked up

With your truck hooked to the trailer, put a chain between the duals loop the chain through the slot in the wheel. run the chain to the back, use another truck to pull like _ _ _ _.

Got the gladhands hooked up properly? Hook them up backwards and they probably won't release. Also ran into an issue on a truck once where the actual clevis pin had seized solid to the slack adjuster and the brakes wouldn't release.
