Default Right Brake Releases Almost at Stop

I have a 2003 F-350, 6Lt.
When I brake everything is good until I'm almost stopped and it feels like my right brake releases and pulls to the left.
Ford replaced the right Caliper and speed sensor but cannot find the problem. They are waiting on Ford on what to do next. They're stumped and I'm without a truck.

Any my thoughts or similar problems and solutions?

They should have the equip to do all the necessary checks.

Can you provide some addl info like;
When did the problem first occur ?
Was any brake or front end work done before the problem first appeared?
Is the vehicle a 4X4 ?
Add any info you can think might be helpful, the more info the better.
Sometimes we remove the ABS fuse to take the (anti-lock brake system) out of the equation.

I had the brakes done at a none Ford shop. Ford said the problem was the right Caliper and changed it. I didn't make it out of the dealership and it was doing it still. No change to whe I brought it in. They changed the speed sensor with no luck and were waiting for Ford to get back to them on to what to do next. That was about 4 days now.

I dont know it they they pulled the fuse but I would imagine that would be one of the first things to be done.

It it is a 4x4.

Thanks

Did they try to sell you a new truck yet?

Is there a brake system pressure equalizer that has a clogged port? Not sure if the truck is so equipped.
