Default rear breaks

Just did my rear breaks they were really bad. new rotors and pads but now the inside pad is dragging seems to be stuck on. I can smell it. I used lube. I put at least 75 miles on them thinking they would break in but still stuck. Anybody have any idea whats wrong

Sounds like something isn't put together right like your emergency brake lever, I would take it apart again and look.

Figured it out the caliper bracket slide pin was seized so i beat the pin out and bought a new one. that seems to remedy the issue

Common problem for some reason. I learned the hard way first time I changed out pads. Now I make sure to clean and lube the slide pins before reinstalling.
