1987 Brake Problems
I have a 1987 with a 4+3 transmission. I drive it once a week and for about 25 miles. About three months ago, I noticed a slight drag on the front right wheel after applying the brakes. The drag lasts about 10 minutes if I don't use the brakes, and then it is normal. It drags again if I apply the bakes and is ok in about 10 minutes. The wheel runs a little hotter, but no smoke. I just had a mechanic replace the right caliper, brake pads, and brake hose, but it still does the same thing. I would appreciate any advice.

This weekend I pulled the electrical connection on the ABS control unit. The anti-lock brake light illuminated on the dash; however, there was no change in the problem. The right front brake still drags and releases after about 10 minutes.
