Just a thought. Some years ago I had a '55 Chevy wagon that I converted to disc
brakes. About a year after the conversion it developed a severe pull to the
left. After much effort liberally sprinkled with four letter words, I
discovered that the flexible brake hose to the right caliper had failed
internally, restricting flow to that caliper. The hose was a name brand and
less than two years old. Replaced hose (actually both just to be safe!) and
problem solved.
Cheers,
Kurt O.
