I to have had this problem before and it wasnt on a power wagon > It has happened on two vehilces that i own so i have checked it out on both > I think its a periodical problem that can occur on any vehicle with hydraulic brakes > First case was my 79 GMC this truck was a minty half ton with less than 70000 miles on it (three years ago now) > I would drive applie the brakes at a stop light and then pull away fronts brakes would drag > not every time but they would cause a pulling of the steering wheel > I changed out the calipers and this problem still persisted occasionally > you could go days with out a problem then it would be back > I never did find the reason for it ! the second brake, on ,situation is my van that i have now its the rear brakes and the same thing occurs as the other truck i owned > i come to a stop sign apply the brakes and there is this draaging and it stops about after you count to three or four seconds > the brakes are good ( complete relign calipers rotors pads and wheel bearings in Oct 08 ) since it had 200000 on the clock and, this too just happens >it did it when i went for coffe at 5 am this morning but did not do it when i went to town at 10 a m strange but i have no answers for it it just seems to happen ~ Copey
