My 67 was the same way when I got it. The right front pulled like a SOB. Just went and adjusted them all nice and even. Smooth as silk now.

look at the inside of the backing plate. there is a little wheel. This is the adjusting wheel. turn it while rotating your wheel by hand until the wheel stops. Then back it off until there is a slight drag. That's it, you're all adjusted.
