breaking problem in my tj

Sometimes my jeep pulles hard left while breaking. I replaced the pads, but it didnt solve the problem. Mabee its my caliper sticking or freezing, any advise?

I have new pads up front and my discs are smoth, my back drums are good and shoes are a little worn, but all worn even.
 

The front right rotor may have a frozen piston or is bad. Take the pads off and push the piston in with a c-clamp. Spray some WD40 in there too. See how that does.
 
Sounds like an intermittenly sticking caliper or bad break line. When the flexable rubber breaks lines get old they can collapse and cause intermitten brake lockups. Also, bleeding the brakes may help out. Just remember that when you bleed the brakes you MUST bleed the entire system (all four wheels) in the proper order.

Also, your avatar is rather large and makes it hard to read the topics you've posted in :wink:

sorry I'm trying to edit my pic smaller, but the quality just gets worse.

I just replaced my last two tierods and my Jeep doesn't pull anymore. Seeing your ride is a few years old and you wheel, you might check there. I bet there is something flexing a bit more then it used to. It was very hard to see they were worn but it's nice and tight now.
