Subject: jumpy braking
IP: Logged

Message:
when i go to brake, especially at medium speeds (25-45) i feel this "vibrating" feeling, kinda like the cab is jumping up and down. It usually only happens during normal braking, not heavy braking. I would compare the feeling to the abs kicking in severly during heaving braking, except it happens all the time. Is this a brake problem, abs problem, or something else? Has anyone else experienced this?

Greg,
It sounds like your front rotors are warpped.
That would cause the vibration your feeling.
You should also check your caliper bushings(the metal sleeves the caliper bolts slide through)If they are worn the caliper will move up and down giving you a vibration under braking.
