Rebuilt Caliper Growning

Hey All,
I had the calipers rebuilt on the front as I was able to get a rebuild kit for them... Problem is that now the right side caliper every now and again growns as if it's sticking and also when I turn a steep right corner... Anyone got ideas or do I have to rebuild the caliper again?
I have taken the pads out of the caliper and got my brother to pump the brake to make the piston come out as far as it could then reset it back into the caliper but it's still growning 
Cheers.

Thanks for the spelling 
Anyway, I am chucking in the towel and going to rebuild the right caliper again. I got a funny feeling the caliper is seized again 
Oh and Allan, I still am chasing shims from the states
Cheers.

make sure your slide pins are free and have no resistance.
This is a common problem quite overlooked by the novice.
