Hi Joseph,
My recent experience was that the caliper was fine, but that the hose
was bad - brake locked up fine, but stayed that way since the hose
would not allow bleed back to the master.
Not saying a rebuild isn't a good idea in your case, just that in my
case a bit of caliper grease and a new hose solved the problem.
