My brakes have been acting up lately, when I hit the pedel, the wheel starts jerking back and forth. I figured one or both of the rotors are warped. I decided to get some better rotors and brake pads. I went to Autoanything on 2/22 and ordered a pair of Powerslot roters and EBC pads. They said they would ship 2/23-2/25, I got them today 2/24 wow, I've never had such fast service and free shipping. Good service. Just passing it on, I'll tell how the parts work after I install on sunday after the next rain.

Usually with warped rotors, the brake pedal will pulsate. More warpage=more pulsation.

Did you get that too?

sloppy tie rod ends and steering racks can do it too, but the brakes are a good place to start

The previous owner replaced my fronts for me, but the rears are pulsating TURBO (Diesel) badly. Time for new rears. Any thoughts to some good replacements?
