1987 Chev Silverado Other - Chassis, Suspension & Steering


Question: The front driver's side brake caliber seized up last week. I replaced the caliber, rotor, brake pads and wheel bearing on both sides of truck. I properly bled the brakes (all 4 wheels). The truck did fine until today when the same thing happened - driver's side front wheel caliber seized up. Any suggestions? Could this be the combination valve?

Technican: The most common problem (and often overlooked) is the brake hose to that wheel. What happens is the hose, while looking fine on the outside, colapses on the inside and acts as a one way valve. It lets fluid travel through to apply the brake, but not back through to release. Let me know if this solves the problem.
