wicked vibration when braking
Hey guys i got one more question(s) for you
so i got this truck (06 ram 1500 regular cab short bed) about a month ago and they had to replace the front left wheel bearing so i dropped it off and when i did i wrote down to check the brakes or wheels because when i brake it vibrates wicked bad. It also fluctuates with the speed. I'm pissed because i told them to check this and they didnt because the problem is still there. Its been getting worse and i didnt think it was wheels because it dosnt happen when im cruising no matter how fast i'm going. I do have the 20's if that makes this easier for you guys to help me out with and it only happens when braking. rotors? I just dont have time to get my baby on a lift to check her out cuz i'm at school and working a full time job.
thanks guys

Sounds like rotors to me (and Chrysler is notorious for it). Do yourself a favor and DON'T buy Mopar ones from the dealer, they will fail again and for what the dealer wants for them, you can get a good set of slotted rotors...
