I have a (90 burb 3/4 ton with 6" lift and 37's, while braking it wants to pull to the right severe, I have to crank the wheel to the left to counter act, this occurs at all speeds, is there a correction that I can do to fix the problem.
 
Just gotta check all the obvious stuff -ball joints, steering linkage, air in brakeline, sticky caliper, sloppy wheel bearing, unusual tire wear. Sounds dangerous though.
 
Got the same problem in my 90 K5. Looked at all the obvious stuff and still don't have a clue. If you find something, PM me and let me know.

Had a similar problem, turned out to be a sticking caliper. Be certain that the calipers will slide in the brackets as designed.

Fighting to keep out of the ditch while stopping is no fun.
 
I also had the same problem. I replaced both calipers and bolts. no more pulling! /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif
