<VV> Question on brakes pulling to the left

[Matt Nall]

I have been having a problem with my 1962 Monza Coupe's brakes.  It  pulls 
to the left no matter what I have done on adjusting the brakes.  It  will 
also lock up the right rear brake on hard braking.  
 
The 1962 did not have self adjusting brakes as they 63's did.  Of  course 
if the adjustments are correct on these and older cars, they will stop  
straight unless there is a problem that crops up.  
 
I completely rebuilt the brakes (wheel cylinders, hoses, brake shoes plus  
turned drums about 12 years ago).  At that time it would brake fine.  

I talked to a person who I would think is well versed and he  suggested 
that perhaps, (even though I changed them) one of (or more than one)  hose has 
collapsed and is causing the problem.  Although new ones were  installed 12 
years ago, they are 12 years old.  
 
Any thoughts on this?  Any suggestions will be appreciated.
 
Thanks,
John R. "Randy" Vidrine

1  Front...  pulls to the left......  sticky WHEEL CYLINDER on the RIGHT [  almost always the opposite side!]




2  REAR.....   Left front works so well compared to right front... it unloads the Right rear under hard braking...




This is assuming ALL  4  brakes pass Visual inspection...no broken springs, etc..
