Having trouble with brakes on my '84 Ford

[NHBaler]

On my '84 Ford 3/4 ton with 6.9 sometimes the front brakes will hold and not release and of course they get hot and after a little while it will release and be find and then next time they may hang up again,haven't took the wheel off yet but thought I would get some advice on what it might be first. Thanks

Could be 2 differant things. It could be the brake line flex hose. they wear out from the inside. You can pump brake fluid thru them but it wnt flow back. the other item may be the caliper slide pinsare bound up. The claipers need to removed and the slots cleaned up and greased.

I will try that but I forgot to mention that it is both sides that is doing it,could that be in the master clinder or something?

Try Gary's suggestions first. They are 2 known issues that are easily dealt with.
