This is probably the key to your problem. Even slight difference in friction material can cause uneven braking. Brake pad material MUST always match on any given axle. Unless the new pads with the new caliper were exactly the same as the ones on the left side THE BRAKES WILL BE UNEVEN!
If you just stick anything on the left side that doesn't match what is on the right side, you will still have a problem.
At this point the best answer is new pads for both front brakes.
