The vehicle is a 1993 Isuzu Trooper 3.1 Turbo Diesel.
The vehicle has been stood up for 2 weeks without being touched. Yesterday when i drove the vehicle again BOTH the front brakes and The passenger side rear brake started to seize on. So much so the front were nearly on fire. The rear was very hot, but the wheel without a problem stayed cold. I am hoping someone may be able to throw some light on this problem as i really am at a loss as to why it is almost locking on, on 3 wheels. Any help would be greatly received. Many thanks Bambi121.:banghead:

Is this a 4-wheel disc system? For the front brakes, ckeck the anchor bolts/pins. They tend to corrode and seize, locking the calipers against the rotor on one side. Ditto the rear if they are discs.
