brakes

Just replaced front brake pads on both sides and also the right front hub on a '93 Explorer w/FWD. Vehicles now pulls to left w/stopping. How do I fix? Thanks.

You have 2 possibilities.
1. The caliper slide rails are binding and not letting caliper "float".
There is a special lubricant for these.
2. One of the caliper pistons is stuck. If Right side is stuck "in", then left side is trying to do all the work. To check it out, jack up front end (both sides) and lightly apply brakes and see if they are getting equal pressure applied .
