I would start,By changing the brake hose's.When you jack up the car is the wheel hard to turn ??? A lot of times the hose will break down inside,And will not let the fluid return.I would bet it's the hose's...

I've heard Pat Goss say that if it pulls to the right because of a stuck caliper, then it's the left one that is stuck, but i find that hard to believe.
