Sometimes brake pulling happens because all springs are
not replaced with new ones. Spring fatique can cause all sorts
of problems. Another area often overlooked is abnormal wear on
the backing plate pad's face area which over time can become
grooved by wear from the side of brake linings backing plate.
      This can and does happen when the pad area is overlooked
and not greased which causes friction and resistance as the
metal backing plate for the brake lining moves across the backing plate pads.
