Steering Pull Problem

I have 2005 Ex with a 6" Procomp lift and 35" tires. I also have a Redhead steering box. I have had all this installed since January and have had no issues with it tracking very true. It is not my daily driver, so it does not see a lot of road time. My problem is this, out of the blue, now, when I accelerated, the steering pulls to the right fairly strongly. I do not see any bent rods and this really did just happen overnight. It is my assumption that I am getting dragging of the brakes on once side which i leading to a pull, but I wanted to hear y'all opinions before I start tearing into things.

Any thoughts you could provide would be very appreciated.

Thank you.

Rob

Just changed all 4 calipers/rotors/stainless lines on my Excursion to fix similar issues. A tip is to feel the Hubs/Wheels after driving for a while, you'll know which one is dragging because it will be the hottest.
