Default Front Brakes Dragging

Hi Guys,

I have an issue here that I am chasing with a 2010 RR Sport. 6 months ago, I noticed that my Driver Side Front caliper was sticking and was hot enough to sizzle water. I went ahead and replaced the caliper and things were good for about 3 months, before it locked up again. I then decided to replace the brake line to that caliper and flush the brake fluid. I'm using a Morton power bleeder to bleed the air from the lines. After flushing the system, I then started having issues with both front calipers dragging. My next thought was that the master cylinder was not allowing the fluid to return properly, so I replaced the MC and reflushed the system. After testing again, the brakes were still dragging. So I pulled both front calipers off and wasn't able to get them to compress. So I replaced both front calipers and put new pads on them. After driving like a little old woman around my neighborhood (1 mile), the front rotors dragged the whole time and the rotors were sizzling hot.

In thinking about what to check next, I'm considering the Power Brake Booster(maybe locking down) or the ABS(triggering and not releasing), but thought I would check to see if anyone had been through this before or if I was just missing something obvious.

Appreciate any comments.
