'06 Caravan Rear Brake Hanging Up? - 06/11/11 07:08 PM
Kind of what I am thinking is happening it sounds like it is releasing slowly. I was going to pull it apart and see where I can lube it to make it release quicker.
Or maybe it is caliper time?
Any thoughts?

Hay RT ... is this a disc rear ? ... this does this during driving ? .. my 03 is hanging-up if it is parked more than 24 hours...

Disc rear. Going out there in a few.
It does it taking off from a stop, braking at slow speed coming off a corner etc.

Looks like plenty of brake pad left. Piston looks like it is way extended. I don't have a book. Talking with IMGTX he said a Concorde he was working on needed almost 1/2" of material on each pad. I need an oil filter for the Cummins so I am going to go check some new pads at the store.
I coated the slides and the chrome plated pins with Neversieze for lube.

Corroded piston in the bore of the calipher will do it.
