pulling to the right
Put a new caliper on the left and the car pulls to the right. maybe it needs to get bled more. I did put 2 new ones on the front then after 1 and 1/2 years the left started to leak.

Replace the rubber brake hoses. They have a tendency to collapse and prevent the fluid from moving freely causing the car to pull to one side while braking.

It could be the brake hoses, but I have always been told that you need to replace caplipers in pairs. If the pull did not start until after you replaced the single caliper, I would first check the hoses to make sure that something is not kinked preventing the left caliper from applying as much force as the right. If you don't find anything there, I recommend changing the other one.
