74 Dart has drums in the rear and disc up front. I changed pads rotors and calipers up front on my 74 dart with power brakes. i took for a test drive. After about 7 miles I smelled smoke. A 1/2 mile later I could tell I was driving with the front brakes engaged. I let the rotors cool off and drive home. Trying not to use the brake. So I let it cool overnight. Next day I go out and jack up car to make sure the wheels don't have drag. Everything seems good. I give it another try. I go for a little drive using the brakes often to give them a good test. And about 5 miles in I can feel the brakes. I come to a complete stop without using the pedal. I let rotors cool for about an hour than ease home. What is the diagnosis?
