Another thought, while cleaning/bleeding, pull/clean/lube the caliper carrier bolts.


I think that did it right there....the caliper was sticking.

Also added the SS lines and have dramatic improvement.


Thank you for all the help!

also for every body that has brake problems try changing out the fluid the oe manufactors recommend every two years per change, brake fliud is hygroscopic in nature which means it will pull water out of the air and as every brake system is vented to the atmosphere it will eventually contaminate the entire system.
