Normally I would agree with the pulsing being the rotors, but with the other symptoms, I dont know. Things warp on their way to the truck..

No I agree that warped rotors will cause the pulsing, all day. It is the other problems she is describing that confueses me..Besides, they were replaced.

From: In my mind.
Ok, with the brake pedal being hard when the issue starts there are 4 things that could be wrong.
1. brake booster
2. booster push pin , it pushs the master cyl. valve to push fluid pressure to brake
3. master cly valve sticking holding pressure on brakes
4 ABS system.
Has the fluid ever been low in master cyl., or p/s fluid. If so fluid could have leaked from master cyl., into booster that can destroy the booster.
Also if that is happening you will also need a master cyl.
In most cases ( not all ) hard pedal means booster trouble.
check to see if there is vacum to booster and no leaks I wish I could see the truck to check it. it is hard doing this blind over net.

If the pads are cheap-o they could be glazing and causing pulsing as well.

I figured out what's wrong with it. I drank about it for a while, and came up with the perfect solution.
