Hello thanks for using 2CarPros. here is a guide to help with the caliper replacement. The caliper piston may be frozen or the rubber part of the brake line may have collapsed inside causing the caliper to hang up on that side.
I got the instructions on how to do it, but it says something about removing caulking and putting new caulking?
