When I bled the rear brakes I got much more pedal resistance on the right side than on the left when each line was opened and flowing (new calipers). My brake load sensor is extremely rusty, could it be defective and restricting brake fluid flow to one side?

Did you change wheel cylinders? If not you only need to bleed the front brakes. How's the pedal?

Not usually, I would say the brake flex hose is the problem, here is how to change it out. I also included the brake components as well to avoid confusion. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes
