Pulling to one side under braking or fluid at the wheel can mean a caliper is leaking or sticking. Before you replace this one, rule out worn pads, a damaged brake hose and seized slide pins, since each can bring similar symptoms. The rear axle takes one caliper per side; this listing is the left one, the right is ordered separately, and both are normally replaced together.
