Landys getting fixed but it's not economical to commute daily so thinking of getting a little runabout and use landy for weekends/trips

Quick update, all mostly fixed, managed to source used swivel housing, stub axle & hub in good condition, removed the hub with brute force & power tools hehe, all back together now but I seem to have slight pulling to the left when I brake, is this a brake fluid leak on the pipework? Also swivel housings missing the drain nut, anyone know the size to replace or part number?
Thanks for all the advice

Just given it a 5 min run, passanger disc is hot, drivers disc is smoking it's that hot! Any ideas what I've done wrong would be appreciated, also brakes feel spongy? Cheers

It's the drivers side hub ect I've replaced, pads were fine, I have replaced the brake pipe for a new one
blue beasty
Leaks an prone to bits dropping off
Seized caliper piston could be the source of the heat and poor braking causing a pull to the left.
Over tight bearings binding is another though wouldn't cause a pull until they seized and pulled right in a very disturbing manner

I did bleed them but can't of been thoroughly as it is still spongy! Would this cause these issues though? My steering seems to be pulling to the left slightly even when I'm not braking which it didn't do prior to me trying to fix the original fault!!

Brakes were working fine before I removed the calliper, and I've just replaced bearings,
I will go check the calipers working correctly and bleed them again, it doesn't appear to be binding on discs
