Default Truck pulling to the left?? after front end work??

So I just had the ball joints replaced on my 98 1500 5.2L 4x2 upper and lower along with the pitman arm and idler arm all mcquay norris parts and had it alinged, now theres just a tiny little hint of play in the steering I pIan on getting a DSS brace in the near future..my question is now my truck pulls to the left but only when I brake it doesn't pull extremly bad but enough to have to hold the wheel or it will wander to the left when comming to a stop?? Any suggestions or comments would be great thanks?

Also i'm going back to the shop tommorow and the front rotors hubs and brakes were replaced recently the mechanic that did the ball joints is telling me I might need the rotors turned or that it may be a clogged brake line by the way my truck has a 6 1/2 in fabtech lift running 315/75/r16 procomp all terrains i'm hoping it might just need a brake ajustment in the rear or something....

Yep sounds like a brake isn't working properly. Possibly front left. It could be just as simple as the pads aren't sliding smoothly on the caliper.
