Help..Truck Pulls hard to the left

Hello,

Im a first time user on this site and I already have a question for you experts. Well, here goes. I just changed out my brake rotors and pads(front) bled the brakes and the truck (94 F-250 2WD) pulls way hard to the left....I pull a camper and I think this condition is unsafe..Any Ideas? Iread in my Chiltons that ther is a Pressure differential valve that should be centeres...do I have one and should I and how do I center it...Could that be the problem...Help!!!

Thanks in Advance

Tom

Hi Tom,

Did it pull before you did the brakes? Have to find that out first. If not you may have a seizing up caliper or bad flex hose. Let us know about the question.

Help..Truck Pulls hard to the left

one day offroading i broke one side of my steering linkage, tie rod and everything, one side is new and the other is factory i pull real hard to the right because one wheel is kicked out it is fixable but it is going to have to take a professional (waiting for spacers to go in then will try to fix it)the alignment guy who did it said if you change anything that has to do with steering it is going to mess it up, damn i beams

The rubber brake hose on the right side is probably plugged. Does fluid flow freely out of the right side bleeder screw?
