Dragging Brakes

[MachAzure]

I painted my rear brake calipers on saturday and sunday. I let it dry overnight and reassembled it yesterday. For some reason the left rear piston had moved in and I had to turn the piston back into the bore a bit .

Anyways, I got it back together and checked everything, but the right rear brake seems like it is dragging really heavily. It is stopping fine though. I know it is dragging because with the car in the air and in neutral, I cannot rotate this wheel like I can the opposite side. What could be wrong?

Thanks for any help

Anyone have an idea? Possibly a siezed caliper piston?

I'll tell you what happened to mine...One of the 2 "sliders" that allow the pads to move in and out had seized. I tried to break it loose with a hammer, then I used a shop press to try and move it. Nothing...I just bought 2 new sliders (which by the way are now triangular shaped instead of a cylinder to provide less surface area) and new bracket to hold the sliders. I would take everything apart again and make sure that both sliders operate correctly. If they don't, you'll end up with a bad rotor and bad pads like I did...
