I am sure you can find some help, and I'd be willing to bet it's a simple fix. Perhaps the bearings are too tight?

If you jack up one tire does it roll freely? Can you tell if it's the brakes dragging or something else?

I would ping crawler creations here as he has a shop and is intimately familiar with Broncos.

I would give CrawlerCreations a message as well. He is up in north Arvada and runs a shop and does great work. Also-- if he is too busy and you are wanting to have your brakes looked at, I had taken my Bronco over to Brakes Plus on 5465 Wadsworth Bypass, Arvada, CO 80002. The service manager there has an early bronco and is very familiar with them.

Have you lifted the front end and tried to spin the rotor by hand with the tire off? Does it spin freely? If so, press the brake pedal and see if after you let off it the brakes hold. Could be that a pressure residual valve in the master cylinder is causing the issues.

That'd be viperwolf.

If you haven't noticed, we're a pretty hands-on group here. A "teach a man to fish" theme.
