TEQ

(OOPS: Title should say "pulls LEFT". Brain fade.)
My '78 has discs on the front and drums on the rear. The disc conversion was done by CCOT in the '90s but I replaced the calipers when I rebuilt the front end (see my Fix-it thread in my sig for details).
A few times recently I had the opportunity to really stand on the brakes and was surprised to find the truck suddenly veering to the left. The truck normally tracks perfectly and handles well.
I am assuming this is most likely air in brake line to the right front. Is that an ok assumption?
If not, what else could be the problem?
If it IS the brakes I'm prepared to bleed the system. Anything I need to know about bleeding the brakes on FJ40s? I've never done it before.
