Question

Help answer this question below.

I have a 2001 Chevy 4X4 S10 pick-up where the front would vibrate when I braking. I had the front rotors, brakes, and calipers replaced, but it's still vibrating. What could be wrong?

    Check your rear brakes too They can make the brake pedal pulsate when braking.
    Also these trucks are well known for weak ball joints. Jack up the lower control arm allowing about 2.5 inches of space between the bottom of the tire and the ground. Use a long pry bar and lift up and down on the tire. Have an assistant look, with a flashlight, to see if there is any up-down movement. If there's any movement replace them. Note: you have to take the upper apart to replace the lower, might as well just replace both on the same side, then have it aligned

    tie rod ends are most likely (do not let them replace the outers without replacing the inners)
    baring that the whole steering likely needs replacemetn.
