I have two suggestions and I don't think it's the rotor.
First since you say it pulls when you hit the brakes it could be that your brake pads have worn out completely and there's metal on metal when you hit the brakes. Some brake bads are designed with a small metal indicator that rubs on the rotor and makes a squeaking sound when the brake pads need changing. If the grinding noise gets louder when you hit the brakes than this is probably what the problem is.
Check the brakes and if that's not it I have another idea.
The grinding noise could also be a bad wheel bearing. I had a wheel bearing go on a Ford Ranger and it made some good grinding noise and it pulled to the side all the time not just when the brakes were on.
My 96' Ford Ranger, 4.0 is idling badly. Smells like gas as well. Changed one of the o2 sensors, coolant temp sensor as well.

You're reading I drive a 1997 F150. ext.cab. As I drive, the left front wheel makes a loud squeaking, (almost grinding) noise. When I apply the brakes, the steering wheel pulls to the right. Does this have anything to do with my rotors? What do you think it is?Pls help?
