ok to start this off..... im going with the brake problem:( , it all started with the front driver side brake sticking on every now and again most times when im in the city going and stoping every ten seconds, well this has progressed to it happening pretty often and i have no idea what is causing it, all my brakes are new, calipers, pads, you name it, except for the lines, ... now i posted on here before and someone metioned the lines dont return fast enough i guess for the brake to release , so then it sticks, well my first question i guess is does anyone else have this problem or hear about it?????????????????????????????????? my next is short, the break problem caused another problem -:t , which is the wheel bearing, from the heat produced from the breaks sticking the bearing is now gone in that wheel, and i would like to know what the price is for one and is there any aftermarket wheelbearings?? My truck is a 2001 2500HD EXT cab....... 2Wheel Drive!!...... i asked around and it seems nobody carrys a front wheel bearing for this kind of truck except for the dealer, but im looking for a little better deal cause i know there the most expensive. thanks for your time and help!!!!:grd:

check the rattle clips or caliper slides that the pads set in.... if the metal clips that the pads set in are all corroded up they will not slide right and could stick that way
