Default Brakes

I've got a '90 Silverado that has recently been pulling to the right when any significant amount of pressure is applied to the brakes. I was wondering if any of you could shed some light as to what it could be. Anytips would be great.

sounds like the pass side caliper is grabbing/ and or sticking which is pulling it to that side.

If its not bad I wouldn't worry. Every vehicle I ever had did it a little and I never put it togehter until a few years back. All the roads around here slant to the right a little for water drainage and therefore causing the truck to pull to the right while driving close to the curb or stopping.
