Default All 4 brakes stuck?

Well I installed the brake motive brake kit not so Long ago and the other day noticed that the front were getting hot spots. So we pulled all 4 wheels off and sure enough all 4 are not retracting. Any have a similar issue?

Did you replace the guidepins in the caliper brackets? Had the same issue with the front brakes so i got new brackets since the pins were seized in it and all is good now. The pins were in far enough for the old brakes to work fine after putting them back on.

Why would it be the Master Cylinder? Are your brakes not working?
