I have a problem with right rear brake. I changed calliper , brake hose
and the rest was serviced , greased and checked ten times over but the
brakes are still dragging and create a lot of heat. Hand brake was checked
and adjusted , is very loose now.
What am I missing ?
Thanks for suggestions.

I went thru the same experience. On each pad in the middle of steel side
there is a little pin.Grind it off from the one going on caliper side.The
little pin supposed to locate the pad in right location , but in most pads
it is in wrong or not perfect position. To confirm it check the pad for
little pin damage on caliper side pad.
