Seized Rear Caliper?

Hey All,

I just got in from changing all 4 brake rotors (easy enough job) but now my left rear brake is dragging and smoking like a bastard, it was bad enough that the car would not pull up from 4k in 3rd gear. Sound like a seized caliper? thats all I can think of. I did notice the smallest tear in the boot on that side (small like maybe two pin heads) last thing I wanted to do was bleed the brakes LOL I hate that part of the job.

Thanks
Mike
