    Hi,

    So when I was installing my Long Travel kit I had to take off the brake lines to put longer ones on. I put everything back, and started to bleed the breaks starting with the rear passenger then rear driver then front passenger and finally front driver. The pedal feel seams good but when i slam on the breaks the wheel pulls in each direction. Has newish roaders and pads (maybe a year old). Any help as to what to look at next would be great.

    You mean when you slam on the breaks your truck will steer left or right?

    I would bleed it again, check your rotors for any blemishes, and check the pads. I was having a pulling issue and I ended up replacing both calipers, although I believe just one was bad.

    Any chance you messed up the calipers or their bleeder nipples? Also check your connections and make sure they're not leaking.

    It goes back and forth as if one grabs and then the other. It doesn’t look like any oil is leaking at any of the connection and the blender screws look fine as well. I’m going to pull off the wheels today and see if there is something obvious I’m missing.

    Yeah that would be a good idea. You can also try jacking up your truck and then roll each wheel a little to see if your calipers are sticking
