Re: car pulls to the left when braking
Does it pull to the left when braking or when letting off the brakes?
If it pulls when hitting the brakes you may have air in the lines, Try re-bleeding. I picked up speed bleeders and did my first brake job with ease.
If it pulls when letting off the brakes, inspect/replace the brake hoses (not lines).

Re: car pulls to the left when braking
I replaced my hoses with SSB from Russell. My car STILL pulled a little, because of air in the lines. So I got the speed bleeders and all is well. Just saying it's easier to re-bleed than to replace hoses. Please try again.
P.S. Always bleed furthest from the master cylinder first.
