I have a gq swb that pulls right under braking, calipers and pads all seem to be good, it has a 4 inch lift in the front and maybe a little less in the rear. It has standard panhard rods at the moment.
I did notice today that it naturally pulls right without touching the brakes has anybody had any problems like this or shed any light? I am up for ideas.

Re: gq pulls right
if its under braking, the left calliper is seized or semi seized

Re: gq pulls right
if its a calliper or seized piston problem you can usually see uneven wear on the pad(s)
Re: gq pulls right
The pads were brand new when I got the vehicle and I haven't done many k's so hard to tell if I have a semi seized caliper piston. Managed to push back the piston so maybe I should take it to someone with a rolling road just ensure it has uneven front braking rather than suspension causing the problem.

did you also move the sliding arm on the brake caliper as well as they tend to seize up as well
