Went to URE this weekend. Lost a tire and got lots of mud jammed into everything on the truck. Tire on the drivers front is slightly bigger. When braking, it's pulling REALLY bad to the right. I made it the four hour drive home from URE. Pulle the front brakes apart even though it might be the one tire causing problem. Drivers caliper would bleed that well so I replaced it. No change with the problem. Tomorrow, I'll swap the front tires and see if it pulls to the left. I might also check the shocks.

Simple question on my troubleshooting. If front left isn't working, would it pull left or right?? I say right. No sway bar on the truck (1985 blazer). Just picked one up from the junk yard but it wasn't pulling before URE trip. Doesn't seem to have any play in the new balljoints.

Haven't pulled the back drums off but need to. Would they be able to cause the truck to pull really bad?
 
The drivers front tire being bigger will cause it to pull. If the drivers front caliper wasn't working that will also cause it to pull right. How much bigger is the drivers front tire?
