My friend has a 92 camaro, he had his brakes done awhile ago and the pads are fine, pretty sure the rotors are too, but when he brakes the car pulls to the right. could this mean the brakes just need to be bled?

I would replaced the rubber brake hoses. Made a big difference when I installed new rubber brakes hoses. Brakes straight. Have done it to all my thirdgens.

I'm with stupid

More than likely the flex line to the LEFT side has failed. Have them both replaced because the other isn't far behind.

Calipers could be bad too.

Whoever replaced the brakes, did they just do a pad slap? (new pads, maybe turned rotors and left everything else?)

If you are going to install new brake lines look for like a set of stainless braided lines. It will really add to the braking feel!
