Caliper Locking up Options

[Euphoria]

Hey, For a while now my passenger side rear caliper has been locking up under hard braking, no leaks anywhere and it bled fluid out both sides fine. I rang up for rebuild kits and they were all $120-95 a side! so last time I was in the wreckers I got a caliper for the side that wasn't locking, still the same problem! today I re-greased the 2 outer caliper bolts but its still doing it, any ideas?

Anyway the passenger side rear caliper is working TOO well?

thanks.

It was only under braking, wheel bearing would be constant, I had a bearing seize in the past aswell.

And you'd know if you had air in the line because the pedal would be soft and lack feel.

Hopefully this will stay good, I took it for a good drive today and it was so much safer under hard braking.

alright that sound great.. remember tho u can get little air bubbles in the line it can be hard and go soft and then go back hard. that is also a sign a a whole somewhere or a leak... maybe even a bad brake booster. but you should of had the brake seize after u had replaced the piston, that just seem funny i have never heard that before, i have heard of a blockage. but hmm make sure u keep a eye on that, would wanna be going down the road with no brakes or at a high speed and they lock up lol...... i just remember something i was working on a cadillac on time and her brakes kept locking up a line from her abs rub against her tire, and she had a whole in it which made the abs keep locking up. replaced that line and she was all good to go
