92 Truck Long Bed / Brake Issue

I am stumped! My front passenger brake pads are wearing down to the metal every 7 days or so. I only put a few hunderd miles on them during that time. I have done the following trying to fix this problem.

I have replaced both front calipers
I replaced the rubber part of the brake hose on the passenger side.
I have bleed the brakes.


What could be causing the brake pads to wear out on only one tire (front passenger) after only one week?

most articles i find on google mention binding caliper guides, bent guides, and corrosion buildup remedied by a good steel brushing.

Those articles do provide some insight. I will look around and see what I can find on the truck. Any other ideas?
