Pulls Right on Braking

Hello All, long time lurker, first time poster.

I have a 2005 with around 140k on the clock. I've finally started trying to address an issue with the truck pulling right on medium to hard braking. I originally thought it was just a frozen caliper. I replaced both front calipers, new brake lines, new rotors and pads all around and a full flush. After all that, it is still pulling right. It is tracking perfectly during normal driving, just pulls on braking.

Any ideas? I really thought calipers, pads and rotors would knock the problem out.

Thanks

You may not have had a stuck caliper, but did you check for even pressure throughout the front lines? Or an obstruction in the driver's side front line? Maybe pinched or bent hard line causing unequal pressure? Or possibly bad soft line that is expanding/compressing due to faulty hose wall...

All things to look at. Then work your way back to the MC/booster.

Thanks! So the soft lines should be all good because all were replaced with braided replacements.

How would I check for even pressure?

Also, from my searches, I'm going to swap out the sway bar bushings to see if that has anything to do with it.

I appreciate it.
