99 trooper - wheel problem

I have a 99 trooper with 225,000 miles for the pass month I've had
this problem where after braking one of the wheels seems to stick before the car will move forward, this only happens once in a while,
but it's getting worse.

I've now had the brakes and wheel bearing checked.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

First off wow! 225k! That is great to hear! If you have a couple of minutes can you post what you have done to the Trooper over the years?

My best guess to you problem is that your cliper slides are dirty and need to be cleaned, or one of your slides is bent.

If you have a bent slide, typically you will have to have the caliper replaced (normall they replace both sides; its bad to mix old with new when it comes to brakes).

You could have a clogged brake line. My '90 trooper had one at 100,000 miles.
