The longer i drive it and the hotter the right front rotor gets the more it pulls to the right. it now has wore out the pad and rotor. i have been told it is the left brake line to the caliper, a bad caliper to the right side, a bad brake booster it is now parked. need advice, help.

HI there,

To do a basic test on this problem go for a drive and get the brakes up to normal operating temp. jack up and place on stands, feel the drag on the brakes, crack open the bleeder if the drag decreases this is a sign that the system is holding pressure and if only one side is affected change the brake hose, if the drag is not released when the bleeder is opened, this will be a sticky caliper, have the caliper overhauled, the booster wont affect the brakes in this way at all.
