85 f/s ram slant 6. when applying my brakes toward the end of the stop one of my wheels is locking up. i think it is the passenger front.when inspecting the calipers and such every thing is good. the passenger side spins with little resistance. the driver front has a fair amount more of drag. i went ahead and replaced the calipers and bled all four wheels. it still does the same thing. could it be my master cylinder or porportioning valve? any ideas?

Could be the rubber line on the Drivers side being worn and giving a little so not to actuate that caliper all the way. Also could be that the steel lines are clogged causing something to lock the passenger side wheel.

Just a few quick thoughts

Cool

My '72 1/2 ton did the same thing. After replacing the calipers and pads, it turned out to be the rubber brake hoses.
