When I hit the brakes my truck dives to the left. I checked air pressure, it's ok, I had the truck aligned a year ago, and had the ball joints replaced at the same time. Could this be brake pads or something else?

Might be a caliper hanging up, brake fluid restriction.

See if fluid is coming out of the bleeders on the front calipers when you open and apply pressure..
