Replaced calipers and replaced brake hose but the passenger caliper still locks up,i have replaced it a couple times and the same one locks up
SOURCE: 2000 chevy 1500 silverado- rear brakes overheating
Have someone push & release pedal while at wheel with problem. See if it takes a while or slow to release. If yes, have wrench ready on bleeder screw, and try again, if it sticks/holds, crack bleeder screw, if it releases, I'd replace hose.

Try replacing the brake hose to that caliper, they collapse on the inside.
SOURCE: 1981 Silverado front driver side brake cant be bled.
Take the bleed screw out and clean it, it may be packed with dirt and plugged up. Keep trying to bleed till you get all the air out, and fluid has a steady stream out the bleed valve. If all else fails, rent or buy a pressure bleeding device that forces brake fluid into the lines
SOURCE: 1993 Chevy C1500 front right brake sticking.
change the brake hose. I had the same problem, and changed all the parts, caliper, brakes, repacked bearings, etc. then changed the brake hose. problem corrected.( reason being is the hose had over time collapsed on the inside, and being that the release of caliper is not pressure forced it wld'nt allow fluid to return thru the line.)

Hi buddy, I want to help you with your problem, but I need more information from you.
What do you have to do to get the caliper to release ?
