Brake woes

I checked briefly via search but no luck so I figured I would ask. My '73 Blazer I recently bought was pulling to the left during braking. While I was changing the fluids, filters, etc. I went ahead and installed new rotors and pads as well as cleaned and repacked the bearings. The passenger side pad was almost nonexistant and the rotor was grooved beyond belief. After I installed the new parts, bled the brakes and topped off the fluid it STILL pulls to the left during braking. I smelled a slight burning smell eminating from the right front wheel today and the wheel and center cap are really hot to the touch while the other side is not warm at all. Any ideas?

Im going to take the wheel off when I get home from work today and take a look.
