I have replaced the rotors, calipers, wheel berrings, and master cylinder and the right wheel still gets hot after driving after only short distances. The brakes appear to bleed fine when done so but it appears that the caliper doesn't release and it is already wear on the new rotor. Is it possible that the return brake line could be clogged or is there another suggestion you might have for my problem.
