        WELL I FINALLY CHECKED CV'S, THEY ARE GOOD. DID FIND MY RIGHT CALIPER SIEZING UP AFTER 10 MILES OF DRIVING. NOW I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT IF I CAN GET AWAY WITH JUST BLEEDING IT, OVERHAULING IT, OR GETTING A NEW ONE.

          Most likely you'll have to overhaul it...caliper pins might be bent...in this case, they'll need replacing. Either way, they'll need greasing (cleaning if straight and you can reuse them before greasing again).
