i had an alignment when the ball joints were done, and the lines were completely bled out in the front, but im going to replace the brake hoses, and bleed 'em again. if that doesn't work then i guess i'll take the left side caliper back for a new one.

by any chance how old are the front tires (i dont want to sound like a guessing fool), because i had the same problem, it turned out my tires were worn, replaced them and everything was butter. (this idea of course keeping in mind that you had your brakes done recently).

no the tires are fine, i put the left side hose on finally, and that helped a little, then i did the rears-new shoes and drums, and that helped even more, now there is only the slightest pull
so i will bleed them all out again and hope for the best. if this doesn't work someone suggested a proportioning valve, or the lines?
