Rear brakes locking up under normal conditions

hey guys, ive got myself an 85 pickup with 33 inch allterrains and if im cruising around, and i hit the brakes a tiny bit harder then like a grandma, the rear wheels lock up. any ideas? i have to brake soo softly inorder for them not to lock on me they arent too close of an adjustment, they are fine. the pedal is also pretty soft.

possibly air in the front lines ??

Have you pulled the drums and inspected the brakes?

Thats the first step.
