I have a problem with my brakes. The front passenger has been getting so hot they start to smoke. I've replace the calipers, pads and the master cylinder. When I turned the truck off yesterday, I could hear a strange noise. I discovered it was comming from the passenger brakes. It appeares the brakes were releasing a little at a time even after the truck was parked. I am at a loss at this point. The vehicle is a 1990 GMC standard cab 1500, with anti lock brakes. Any ideas would be great.
