My front breaks are locking up. They dont do it all the time, but more than not. I have properly bled all 4 starting from the furthest away from the master cylinder. I replaced the caliper and hose on one side but it did not help so I didn't do the drivers side. After only a few minuets of driving the lugs, rim and all other parts around the breaks get hot enough to fry an egg. The rotors do not appear to be warped. I am poor, so please forgive me for not being able to donate.

Take caliper off, remove slide pins and pin boots. grease slide pins and replace boots if necessary. Pins should move freely.
