The booster problem that I had really got my attention when I realized that
I had very little play in my brake pedal. If I used my brakes lightly, it
would make the passenger side caliper lock up. To make it back off, I had
to stop completely and firmly press the brake, to get the caliper piston to
back off just enough to get unlocked.

Hey Rascal!

<snip> Bob, I just went thru the "sticky" caliper thing on my passenger
side
too...turns out it was the booster..there is an adjustment that goes into
the master and it had
unlocked and moved out on its own. It's a fairly common occurrence on
Dodges from what I now know.<snip>

Did you see my last post to Ray? Does the booster affect how easily the
piston can move back into the housing?
