This gets really annoying, when I go to brake some what hard it swerve to the right, it used to do it to the right now its the left, I bled both brakes like crazy could it be alignment? help!

Yeah, either alignment or balance. That's what it probably is, unless you just have an extremely unusual problem.

Calipers need to be rebuilt? How easily do all the pistons move in and out when you try to move them?

calipers x2.

I didn't think calipers because he said that it used to pull one way, now it pulls the other way...so.....

Unless one fixed itself, or the other caliper got twice as bad as the original bad one??? lol

i would check these first definatly. it sounds more like you alignment than anything.

Well Im going to take it in to the toyota dealer for the recall and I guess they do a free alignment so I let you guys know if thats it, but the pistons on the driver side where kinda hard to push when bleeding, how easily should I be able to push them?

I'm pulling hard to the left. I have a new caliper on the left side. I took the right off last night, and it looks like the 2 outside pistons are working, and the 2 inside ones are frozen. I can put a piece of cardboard between the brake pad and the rotor.. Time to give autozone another $40 I guess!!

Definitely check the calipers to see that all 4 pistons are moving freely. if you're lucky enough to be able to get them all out without damaging them, a rebuild kit is only like $4-5

HOw can you tell if its frozen, if they dont move at all or if they are really hard to move?
