Well if they are pinching too hard, replace the caliper, pretty straight forward and common. If the pads were worn weird, you have another problem, easily diagnosed by looking on the brake pad box, it will recommend what to do if your pads look like......

If it doesn't bleed, pull the bleed screw out and run a drill bit down it and then through the side if you can still see that part. or replace it.

Be patient, someone will help you eventually. If you ramble in a hurry most people are not going to reply, especially if you are not going to take the time and post as much detail about your problem as possible, your not texting on a phone here.

Did you check for free motion in the slider pins? My guess is that the pins or caliper on the rr is faulty.

if neither the LF nor RR calipers take a bleed, i'd suspect the prop valve
try cracking the lines there and see what happens when you bleed
