Clunk and Pull Left When Hard brake

Hey all. I am having these two thing happen at times. I dont think the clunk is the cab mounts because they look good and its more when i turn the wheel from left to right or the truck momentum sways one way. So ive read about sway bar bushings but those look good. So im think now tie rod/ball joint because of the pulling left when braking??? Not super urgent but i would like to get it taken care of before towing season starts for me. Any thoughts?

I did just read there was a TSB on the calipers. I bought it used so not sure if they are original or not. I will see if it is seized.

If it's a seized caliper, I'd suspect the one on the opposite side from the direction the truck pulls.
You might also check the front shocks to ensure all is still tight. Lots of clunks reported from these.
