My 1969 1/2 Maverick has a pull to the right when applying the brakes. Have installed new upper ball joints to rid EXTREME pull and dip and have not yet had new allignment. The car sat for 3 years and has only 24K original miles. Had similar problem with a Pontiac recently and was fixed by replacing both front brake hoses. Have been trying to locate new hoses but no listing for this year or 1970. From what I've read on web sites, 1969 1/2 had Falcon front end parts but according to pictures, the hoses don't look alike. I don't have access to a Hollander Interchange manual for compatability reference. Anyone have an experience with this problem?
