So I've replaced the soft line and the caliper trying to get this thing to stop squeezing too ******* the front right brake. But even with the new caliper it acts EXACTLY the same, so it was independent of caliper issues or soft line collapsing.
I can't think of anything that would cause this to one side and not the other.
It's not crazy tight or anything but it pulls to the right all day and the hub will be a little warmer than the left after a drive.
I can take freeway exits by just letting go of the wheel. *lame*
I've tried greasing the caliper pins, not greasing them, getting new ones and cleaning the caliper paint off the pin tracks(great idea @chillichillman88 it actually did help).
To give an idea how tight it is-- when you're mounting a wheel and you need to rotate the wheel to line up with the lug studs, with the weight of the wheel on the hub it will not turn the brake when rotating the wheel. But on the passenger side the brake turns with the wheel so you have to lift the wheel to line up the studs.
Thanks for the help,
Joshua
