trip to the mech, now car pulls while braking

allright, so i figured it's time to get the differential mounts done on the 87 260e by the independent mech as the rear was getting very loose and i could also hear rattles / clunks.
the shop called back and said the diff mounts were replaced but they also had to replace one of the rear control arms.
they also mentioned that the rear brake pads are very low and should be replaced. so i had all that done.
now, the rear wheels are sitting closer to the front of the vehicle and are no longer in the center of the wells. that's not what is bothering me so much. it's the fact that every time i brake, the car seems to be taking a left curve, the rear of the car wants to go outside from the right and the front of the car seems to be moving left. the car literally shifts half a lane to the left.
the steering doesnt move left, which is why i'm assuming that it might not be a defective front calliper.
i've already been to the shop after the repairs but the mech. says everything looks ok. any ideas....
thnx.
