Ok heres the problem plain and simple, when I apply the brakes at high speed lets say around 50-60 mph and faster it seems to shake allitle bit in the front end, not bad or even unsafe in any way but enough to drive me nuts. I was thinking I need new front brakes but they seem fine, it stops on a dime. My freind owns a 2003 F150 4x4 and he said his does the same thing, seems to think its the anti lock brakes but I dont buy it. Any thoughts I would love to solve this problem. Thanks eveyone

check the lower ball joints and the steering idler arm anchor to the frame for looseness. jack both wheels off the ground a couple inches, jacks under the A- frames, then check for looseness.
Great thanks for the info it will help, now a few more questions would it better to just get new rotors then to have them turned for in the long run, and who would you suggest bringing my truck to, to have the rotors replaced as far as money and quility, I mean should I just go to a local mech or a well known place. And the second question if the ball joints are loose is this unsafe or is it just something that happens over time from wear and tear. And are these ball joints a simple task to do yourself as far as replacing them. Ok one more question, how much we talking to get some new rotors put on? If any of you know. Well thank you to everyone that has replyed, I love this forum great people and wonderfull info.
