Response:
Anthony, Right tire may be seriously low on air. The left caliper may be leaking. The right caliper may be hung (needs new pins/bushing or at least some disc brake grease). Air may need to be bled from brake fluid. Brake hose may have collapsed internally. Could also be as simple as the pads on the left are worn to the point were they aren’t doing much. If you can’t recall the last brake job, now might be a good time to go through the front-end and brakes.

Response:
Anthony, When was the last time any front-end/brake work was done? What was done? Has this been going on for a while and gradually getting worse or has it just started? If you tell us more we can guess better!

Response:
last brake job could not tell you truck was unused for a few months and was pulling to the right then. it did get gradually worse as time went on. Anthony
