Hey folks,
I know many are reluctant to dish out advice on brake work - and for good reason. I'll preface this by saying that I'll probably take my truck in to a good shop for this one, but I do have to drive it there so I might as well give it a look....
For a while (read 8 months) my truck has been pulling hard to the left when you step on the brakes. I've gotten so used to it that I frequently forget it even happens, I just instinctively counter it with some right pressure on the steering wheel. That said, I've let two other folks drive my truck recently and they really had a hard time - it was enough to remind me that I need to get it fixed.
FYI, I have a 109 front axel with dual wheel cylinders.
If I'm pulling to the left, does that mean I need to loosen things on the left, or tighten them on the right? Any thoughts about how to diagnose? All 4 wheels spin freely when jacked up and all four are solidly locked when the brake is depressed.
