Default Truck Bounces

Hello everyone. I bought my truck used, and it has a bounce whenever I am coming to a stop. I mean I feel it at around 25 to 30 mph. Dont know the history on the truck, but could a bent axle act this way? Its in the back, I know that much, and I changed the brakes and drum on the passenger side. Drivers side looked as good as the new brakes so I left them alone. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks for your time and info.

Well, Make sure your Rotors aren't warped, maybe a stuck caliper.. rotate your tires,,, could be bad shocks.... Good luk and post your fix.
