Narrative:

Pilot reported #1 brake and #1 tire worn to limits. Myself and 3 or 4 other amt's removed and replaced the #1 brake and #1 wheel assembly, following procedures from the appropriate maintenance manual. After completion of the work the brake checked good, paperwork was completed and the aircraft departed. When I came back to work today, aug/fri/01, I was told that the aircraft that we worked on had the #1 brake seize up on landing after the brake change. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated the wheel keys were aligned with the brake rotors but when pushing and rocking the wheel assembly the 2 inboard rotors moved out of position and were not locked in the wheel keys. The reporter said on landing the brake seized.
