maybe it's the cold.. but steering feel is acting up in a weird way

So it snowed a couple days ago and it's still cold as a witch's ***. My brake calipers have obviously been seized for quite some time, but i'm too broke to buy new assemblies. The steering today felt quite weird. It was butter smooth as usual when steering to the LEFT, but a bit of a 'push' when steering to the RIGHT. I just got an alignment 3 days ago and it's still pulling to the RIGHT. I have to have the wheel turned a little to the left to go perfectly straight. I would think steering would be a lot smoother to whichever direction the car is pulling. Wheel bearings/some kinda leak somewhere?? It's just weird that steering to one side is tougher than to the other side. tire psi's are the same, i run 35/33 because I had 225/45's put on my 15" sawblades. What could this be? Think the tranny slipped a little too. Did the tranny diagnostic with the O/D light, but everything's fine. Is cold weather really mean to maximas, or was the carefree 13k miles I've had the max so far coming to an end??? I mean cmon.
