Look at your front brakes you have a brake caliber, on it you will see a piston that pushes your brake pads in when you apply your brakes sounds like your piston on brake caliber is sticking.they have rebuild kits at your local parts place hope this was useful.

1993 gmc sierra 1500 abs brake light on

the most common cause is wheel speed sensor or sensor wiring not reading proper wheel speed.it is also possible the reluctor wheel inside front bearing is clogged with rust and debris and unable to send magnetic pulse. This can be tested with scanner to determine wheel in question.ohm meter can be used to test sensor and reluctor pulse.

2001 gmc sierra 1500. The front brakes drag. I have replaced pads, calipers and hoses. Resevoir is full and gasket on cap is new. Can the brakes be adjusted?

No, there is no adjustment aside from being certain calipers are not binding. Be sure the M/C is fully releasing.
