.A POSSIBILITY?
MAYBE NOT RELATED TO THE OTHER ISSUE
MAYBE YOUR BRAKE CALIPER IS NOT RELEASING/ OR FULLY RELEASING?
SOMETIMES AN OLD HOSE, USUALLY THE ONE AT THE CALIPER, WILL DETERIORATE INSIDE. IT WILL LET FLUID IN, BUT THEN COLLAPSES (ACTS LIKE A CHECK VALVE) AND WON'T LET IT BACK OUT
TO MAYBE VERIFY THIS SITUATION. WHILE IT'S "DRAGGING", JACK IT UP AND SEE IF THE WHEEL IS NOT ROLLING FREELY. THEN LOOSEN THE BLEEDER VALVE ON THE CALIPER (RELIEVING PRESSURE). IF THE WHEEL TURNS FREE-ER, THE HOSE IS MOST LIKELY THE CULPRIT
THE "SLIDES" ON THE CALIPER (NOT SLIDING) MAY ALSO EXHIBIT SIMILAR SYMPTOMS
