Question 2000

i replaced my brakes and rotors. when changing the breaks i had one of the slider bolts ( the ones with the boots over them) froze and had to heat it up to remove. then the problems started. after this, on a long trip the breaks started pulling to the left. long story short, ended up taking it to the ford garage and the mechanic put the break cage that was on the left to the right side and it stared pulling to the right side. so i purchased a new cage and put it on. after a day or 2 it started pulling again mostly to the right side but also sometimes to the left and this seemed to be when the breaks got warmed up. any suggestions i would appreciate. thanks mark

Re: 2000

what kind of brake pads were installed - have had a few come backs at my dealership when using aftermarket pads. due to he weight of these vehicles the pads get too hot with aftermarket and start to pull. reccomend using only for (not even motorcraft) pads. sounds dumb but has worked for me in the past.
