Default brakes

03 f-150 xtr i posted awhile back about brakes pulsating and i got some resonses of what i thought it was rotors.but now when you try and brake from hiway speed to slow down it shakeside to side also is that related to the rotors or is that tie rod ends and all that good stuff? 154000km thats my guess since ford was to cheap to put a grease nipple in anything,any advice would be great.

Did you ever get around to changing the rotors? Or at least having it looked at? Sounds to me like you still have a brake problem

no i never changed the rotors yet but plan to do so,was just wondering if the side to side shake was related to the rotors or if it was more than that

Your rotors have gotton worse. Ford does put zerks on certain parts that are not sealed. Seams to many Bozos would overgrease and tear up the sealing boots.
