When I start driving the car after I have applied the brake the truck starts to shake. I changed the calipers and pads, but I believe that the caliper on the driver side is still sticking..What could cause this? The truck always starts to shake after I have applied the brake. I can sit at a stop light after applying the brake and the truck will not even roll when I let my foot off the brake which makes me think that the caliper is still sticking down. Also when I get done driving the truck when it has been shaking, the driver side tire and wheel are scolding hot, so something is causing friction. I bled the brakes and everything was fine so it is not a collapsed brake line either. Can someone please help me out and give me some ideas!!?? Thanks a lot everyone!!
 
have your front end checked.including wheel bearings.or check it yourself. but id suspect your problem lies deeper.also when you bought the calipers did the have steel cups in em?might wanna look for the other style, steel tends to get stuck.i havent worked on your model though.
 
if the rubber lines are old and swelled they will act as a check valve the pressure going to the caliper is greater than the pressure pushing it back to the resovior and the line will not let the fluid pass back through the hose
