Pulls to one side after COMPLETE brake job
Car used to pull to right, and the pads on the pass. side were completely worn down and the driver's side pads were in great condition. Soo I replaced both calipers completely with reman units, new pads, turned rotors. Now car pulls to opposite side. I just bled the system completely with dot 3 synthetic and have the same results.
Could I have a bad brake line on the pass side?

Consider replacing both front hoses. Sounds like there could be trouble with both of them. Also it's accepted practice to do the same thing to both sides at once whenever you replace a brake part.
Also inspect the rear brakes, they contribute a little to stopping and might cause a pull to one side.

It drives just fine, however when I first replaced both calipers, and had the car on jackstands, I bled everything and started it and put it in drive and the PASS side hung up a little, but would spin if you spun it with your hand then it would come to a stop again.. if that makes any sense. But I recently replaced the half shaft on the pass side (and the driver's side a year ago) so I don't know if that has anything to do with it?
But yeah, I think replacing the hoses wouldn't be a bad idea.. I think the hardest part of the job would be dealing with 15 years of rust.
Also, if I replace both front hoses, should the back brakes be bled too?

it could be pad sticking slightly in the carriers due to only being a mono piston caliper the carriers must allow the pad to slide with ease ,you could also try to pressure bleed in case there is a restriction in the brake line,
