I have a 1999 Jeep Cherokee Limited, 4.0 inline 6 cylinder, and having an issue with the brakes. Both front (right and left side) brakes are dragging anyone have any input. Thanks

See if just cracking a bleeder or ling at master cyl - just a tad releases the drag but don't let air in of course. If master cyl doesn't allow pressure to return they can drag a little or nasty. Usually with some faulty replacement not just out of the blue.

Can brake pedal come up more than it does and does it feel real high up top of travel? In that both do the same I don't really suspect the flex hoses so has to be something in common to both or wild bad luck that both calipers are frozen or about to get worse. If exposed to submerging in water even a Jeep doesn't like that,

What leads you to believe they are dragging?

Well they are holding back, heating the rotors up after a short trip, ect. ect.
