Hey all,
Well, last summer I changed out my front brakes and replaced the drivers side caliper. I noticed that after driving (usually not very far 5-10 miles) that my front brakes were dragging (I pulled the tire off and the wheel did not turn very freely). A fellow cruiserhead said I should replace the caliper since it was probably shot, so I did and replaced the the pads on both sides.
Well, fast forward to today (the truck has been sitting in my garage since just since last summer and I just started driving it again last month) and I decided to jack up the truck and check the front brakes. This was after driving for a little while and its doing it again. Who knows, I may not have even fixed it right last summer and didn't drive it enough to notice.
What should I do to get these brakes working right again? Do I need to bleed them more? Any help would be much appreciated.
Oh, I did check the rear wheels for good measure and they spin freely. I have rear drum and front disk.
Thanks!
