W124 Front caliper frozen
 
Had to hit my brakes hard... ABS light came on.... got to location, when I restarted car, ABS light goes off.

However my front right brake caliper froze in the open position...

I will probably answer my own question...Does it make more sense to just replace the caliper and hose and be done with it?

Yes. You may get a bunch of suggestions of how to rebuild. But if the piston is stuck, the correct repair would be a resleeve and new piston. The expedient solution is to get a replacement caliper and send the old core back to the rebuilder..
