Do you have new or rebuilt brake calipers? I know many aftermarket rebuilt calipers come with phenolic pistons, they're crap. Chrystler has had problems on their jeeps for years now due to this problem. The plastic pistons heat up and don't open back up all the way, causing crazy brake overheating and pad wear.
