I just replaced the calipers and pads. Everything was fine for 2 days, now the right caliper is hanging up. If I crack the bleeder, it will release, but locks up again when I hit the brakes. Any ideas??

Hi, I was just wondering if you figured out what the problem was and what you did to fix it.
Thanks,

I did. The brake line from the frame to the caliper was partially clogged. When I took it off, I couldn`t get air through it. I got one right off the shelf at advance auto parts for about 25 bucks. No problems since. Now I need to do the other side, but at least I know the problem. Good luck, Frank
