Angry braking pulls on a 84 gsl-se

the brake lines, pads and master cyl were changed out a few weeks ago...

ever since i noticed the car pulls to the left once braking is applied...

i figured it was the calipers so i changed those out today and still have the same problem...

Here's a pic of my new caliper...

Tire balance will do that, if you happened to swap tires on accident or even if you didn't install them on the same lug nut it can effect that. Make sure to torque those lug nuts to the proper torque. I can see you have new adjusters so i'm thinking that you've had an alignment recently? Might just be a good idea to have them balanced.

And hey, what did you pay for those calipers? I'm assuming they were loaded with the new mounting brakets.
