Pretty much just like the title says:

When l get on the brakes ... the truck veers to the passenger side. l have researched the site and found that this can be caused by loose suspension components...

My questions is... are there specific parts l should be looking into? l plan to go through the entire front end and tighten everything up... but wanted an idea if there were specific parts l should be looking for that will be loose.

Also, when tightening everything up... is it beter to have the truck up on stands or just leave it on its own weight? Thanks in advance.
 
I would be looking at a caliper that is seizing myself......jack up the front end and see if one tire is dragging harder than the other.
 
Check things like radius arm bushings, and the beam pivots too.

Also, check that you don't have a rear axle seal leaking. I had this once and it caused a pretty good pull while braking after oil had gotten onto the brake linings.
