I was wondering what would cause a front disc brake to hang up or stick intermittently because it doesn't seem to do it constantly. I just changed the rotors and drums and the pads and shoes bled the brakes not sure where to go from here please help. thanx

Hi there,

You may need to get the caliper o/hauled this is not a big job and have the front brake hose checked for a restriction, as this is also a common cause of one brake hanging on.
