Brakes/hubs/bearings need advice

I am about to pull apart the front brakes on the wifes 03 X. It pulls to the left some when braking. Since it is pulling, having read alot of the posts, going to clean the pins, etc. Since i am into it, is there any service that can be done to the hubs or bearings? I am not familiar with the Ford front end and don't know if they are all sealed bearings or what? Got to take a day off work to do this and want to do everything i can while i am in there. The only thing it is doing right now that isn't right is pulling to the left when braking.

THanks!!

The wheel bearing and hub are a sealed bearing assembly, not much you can do with them in the way of service.

Guzzler has probably more documentation on this subject than anyone. I just replaced all my bearing/Hubs when they wore out
