Back again with more issues. When coming to a stop from a slow start, say five or 10 miles an hour, the brakes grab the wheel but (I'm guessing) let go and grab and let go and grab and let go. They vibrate hard and it's really annoying. For now it's just in the front wheels, but I think it's becoming apparent in the rear wheels. Any ideas?

 

warped rotors!!!! calipers poss hangin up on the slider bar

 

GREAT SCOTT THAT WAS QUICK!

Warped rotors? How to tell and estimated cost-to-fix?

 

take the two front rotors off the truck take them to an auto shop who turns drums and rotors and have them cut them when their doing the cutting they`ll notice right awayif their warped,, just by looking at them wont help ya cant see the warpage.. also rotors have a tendency to glaze over from overheating, which will cause the warping effect.. What your feeling is kinda like a pulsating right? also cost to have cut is normally 20$ eachrotor

 

Yeah it's pulsating. Feels really shaky and like the brakes could snap off and I'll be left rolling out into the 6th and main intersection. I've been looking around, if they're bad I'm looking at about 250 dollars for a set of front ones. I'll hop on it this week and have them cut. I appreciate the help man. And thanks for the quick responses.

 

Is it a very fast pulsation? If so, you may have a dirty or faulty wheel speed sensor that is activating the Anti-lock Brake System.

 

Nope, I've activated the ABS myself quite a few times and I know what it feels like. It isn't the ABS. The brake pedal and steering wheel doesn't vibrate, just the front wheels and you can hear/feel it in the floorboard.
