I am having a problem with my Jeep pulling to the right when brakes are applied. Looking for help and advice what to check next.

Info on my Jeep, It is a 2018 JL Rubicon with 103k miles on it. The original pads were replaced and calipers/brackets thoroughly cleaned on Saturday. It was doing it before the pad replacement and is still doing it now.

Anyone have an idea what I need to check next? Anyone else having this issue?

Does it smell like brake dust after driving? My JK did what you are describing after a pad replacement, the caliper ultimately seized and warped my rotor.

No, it doesn't.

You got air in the brake lines, best to bleed the brakes should fix it.

Check the torque on the tierod ends, then proceed through the steering system. It may also be worn out balljoints.
