Passenger Front wheel seizing up in reverse

So, heres the story...

1999 4wd 3.0 Automatic

Today I was on the interstate going about 80. All of a sudden, something shout out of the passenger side wheel well. It did not affect the ride whatsoever so I assumed it was a rock or something. Once I got onto Houston's horrible roads, I noticed that every hit was louder and rougher than before (particularly when the passenger wheel hit a pothole or bump). As I made an attempt to reverse into a parking spot, the truck started shaking and eventually stopped, the wheel seized up. It freed right up when I put it in drive. Other than the rougher/louder ride, there are no issues with the truck in drive. Every time I put it in reverse, the same thing happens.

Im going to take it a part and have a look in the morning. Obviously Im going to look for whatever part I lost while driving but does any body have any idea what may have happened or what general direction I should look while I've got it apart?

Thanks for the help

Top bolt on brake caliper? When you put it in reverse, it swings up into the inside of your wheel and seizes up the wheel?
