I had a problem with two of my '85's. Thought the caliper (rt frt) was locking up. Replaced the caliper and no difference. Then I replaced the flexible brake line at the caliper. Must have been restricted bigtime. The reason I replaced the caliper on the other truck was that this problem occured about 2 years later, and one is a 1ton, and the other is a half ton. I just figured that the restricted flex line was a pretty rare occurance. Just passing along an overlooked possibility.
