BRAKE Problems
Ok so heres whats going on, I had a problem with the drivers front brake caliper would stick and lock the front wheel it wouldnt release. untill I bleed fluid from the bleeder.
I thought it was a faulty caliper so I bought new calipers, rotors, brake pads for the front brakes on both sides. bleed the calipers in installed everthing
took it for a test drive and the drivers side locked up again. it will not unlock till I bleed the fluid off.. ABS light is on too...
any Help..:-

Thanks Tiny wonder,
I guess I could have done that.. Anyway found the problem. I had taken off my shock hoops & shocks to re polish nthe bodies and re coat them with clear. when I re installed them the shock resivor was too close and pinched off the rubber brake line, thus allowing pressurized fluid to apply the brake but not return. and one of the wheel abs line was also pinched that caused the abs light.
Thanks to all the responded with the great Ideas.
It was Camodown who came up with a faulty rubber brake hose that got me too look closer at them.
