Default

If it pulls either something was not done right with brake repairs or something is bad in suspension. I don’t know your experience in brake work but sometimes it’s not easy to get brakes bled properly or possibly something installed wrong. Eg. I remember a thread recently where someone accidentally installed wrong caliper on a side and bleeder was at bottom so even though it appeared to bleed properly their was air at top of caliper. Not sure how to help other than to say check again and check suspension. Good luck

Found out that the parts store sold me one caliper for a truck with heavy duty suspension & the other for a standard suspension... THAT. Is what caused the issue to arise... make sure you check the exact type of calipers that you get across the counter.. not all parts guys are knowledgeable!!
