ok so i put new pads and rotors on the rear and it still sounds like the brakes are dragging, what else should i check?

i guess at this point its either the brake lines or the calipers, but i just really dont feel like spending money on those untill i exhaust all my options..

i already tried adjusting the e-brake too, and it also doesnt do it when i brake, and sometimes it doesnt do it at all.. i guess this points even further to it being the brake line.. arghh.
