Nissan Repair: front brake pulls to left, nissan d21, brake hoses


Question
i have a '93 nissan d21 pickup. the truck pulls hard to the left when braking. replaced master cylinder, both front brake hoses and driver side caliper. what else could be the problem?

Answer
Hi Rick -

Have you checked the passenger side caliper? Could be that the piston is frozen in the release position, so you only have left brakes.

Also, when you are traveling about 25 miles and hour and step on the brakes, does the wheel turn abruptly, or just kid of swings to the left? If it does not turn abruptly, it could be the rear brakes. If your car is rear wheel drive, check if your axle seals are leaking, or wheel cylinders.

Hope this helps -
