Caliper Replacement

[nickorsi]

I have a 98 Mountaineer and recently had to replace the Pass. side caliper, was sticking and the inner pad was gone.

I took it to a shop to replace but I'm noticing that when i brake it still pulls hard to the right, but I'm not feeling any drag or hearing anything like I did before.

What is the chance that the new caliper is bad? Or should I try replacing the driver side as well to see if that makes a difference. I've heard that you should replace both sides at the same time, but also didn't want to fix anything that wasn't broken.

chance of a new caliper being bad is very posible....however the fact that the other side maybe be bad is posible as well. check and see if both calipers have the same amount of force...

check the pads...is the one side worn more than the other?

You could also have a collapsing flex line that can give you what you are describing.
