I finally got around to repairing my Clutch. Weeks ago I lost the clutch pedal due to a fractured flexible hose. After getting a new one fabricated at a hydraulic shop in Green Bay, WI, I got it back to working order this weekend. The residual problem with the clutch now is some juddering. Is this likely to be the clutch plate or gear box mounts?
In any event I took it for a 20 mile drive after the clutch repair to give it a good test. When I returned I checked the feel of the wheel trims as I had previously had a brake caliper sieze. The front left was cool, the front right very warm and both of the rears were very hot.
I have a set of caliper seals and so that will probably be the next job. However, what about the rears? Is this likely to be the handbrake linkage?

Unlikely to be linkage but non-floating wheel cylinders on rear - SEARCH for loads more.
Could be oil on clutch which may get better with use - check all mounts - they part company with backing steel just try lift engine and box to see if they separate
