Anybody know why a newly installed rear brake caliper would seize up?

Probably the hose to it and not the caliper. Just open the bleeder a tad and if that wheel frees up that's a good diagnosis for that. Hope you did'nt burn up your new brake job,

Tom has some good advixe on the hose. Also be sure the slides are well lubricated.
