Late response, but curious if new caliper fixed the issue? My first thought was the handbrake pads - they're a little tough to set correctly (too tight and wheel won't spin freely when disengaged - too loose and handbrake won't hold car when engaged). But if both wheels were spinning freely when lifted, not likely the issue.
