Thanks for the tip! The bolts were prety rough so I replaced them.The top one on the right side had a "groove" worn in it that looked bad enough that it might cause the caliper to stick.- But what I found by accident was the mechanic that put the brake lines on had the left and right hoses reversed, i never would have thought there was a difference but, i had him switch them and wala! - no more pull to the right! The hoses look identicle from the outside to me, but they must be different on the inside!
