Default tower terror clutch problem??

I have a tower terror and have had no problems with it. Its been a great little firtst timer truck. My question is, with the truck on my stand and the motor not running I noticed that the wheels are hard to turn in the forward motion. The truck still drives fine and stops good and doesnt move when I have it idling. Has great acceleration and top speed. I just noticed this tonight while I was cleaning it up. I started it on the bench and all seems to be ok. no weird noises coming from the front or rear diffs. Could the clutch shoes be binding a little?? thanks for any input. I just ran the truck yesterday evening and it ran perfect, just thought is should roll easy when the motor is not running.

No, not the clutch shoes. could be the clutch bearings. Probably the brakes dragging.
