Expert Reply:
If your disc brakes like the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R35S are not releasing it is likely an issue with the hydraulic actuator. Oftentimes this is the shock of the actuator having gone bad so it won't release all the way, so that would be the first thing to check; you could possibly replace it if that is the case. For example, if you had a Titan Model 60 Actuator you could use the Replacement Shock Absorber for Titan Model 60 Brake Actuators # T2336200.
