How did you go about adjusting everything after the replacements, and are you certain that you recieved the proper parts to start with?

how do you know it's dragging?
just 'cause it's getting hot?
maybe it's the only one working?

check the fluid level in the resevoir if its over filled it can cause the brakes to drag

People have clues, but you have to answer their questions.
So, do you have a clue?

lol

sometimes the rubber brake hoses can get old and colapse when letting off the brake and keep enough pressure to the caliper to make them drag; just a thought...

Thanks guys,
i know it is dragging because i can set on a hill and push in the clutch and it wont roll.But it does not do it all the time.Only some and iam still struggling with this issue.It is the fronts because they are the ones that smell like heck.I can drive to work and they will be fine then on my way home half way they start.I am stumped it seems they would do it all the time.
Thanks everyone.

so you replaced the caliper(S? both calipers?)
did you grease the slides?
did you check them for wear?

sure the rear brakes aren't hanging up, but not working right?
