When I hit my brakes the truck has a horrible shake to it. I've replaced eveything brake related in the rear and 2 sets of rotors up front. I've checked all my u bolts and links and there all tight. The whole front end is new, bearings tie rods ball joints steering stb. I set up a dial indicator on all the rotors and the most I'm off is .002" that's nothing. I'm running out of ideas and things to check. Any help would be great, thanks in advance.
Have a close look at the rotor surfaces, especially the piston sides. Does there appear to be hard and soft spots? Good rotors are getting hard to find. Even some of the slotted rotors for sale are made in China and just modified here.
I have seen a couple rotors that I got for crap cars that were $19 autozone cheapies that seemed to have hard spots that didn't wear evenly. I have seen on friends cars that when they did a break job and left greasy hand prints on the rotors that, that upset the break in pretty bad. It was just a suggestion, I been way off before...
well at least im not the only one. Do you have any ideas of what is could be, or anything else to try?
