Front or Back?

I posted a question the other day and I am still in need of help. I have an 02 XLT with about 60,000 miles, with front and back discs. About a year and a half ago I replaced the front rotors, pads and bearings. I am having a pretty severs braking problem, I have a new baby and I have to fix this before I can put him in my truck. and get it back on the road. Braking is difficult, especially when they are heated up. I get alot of pusating/shaking mostly felt in the stearing wheel somewhat on the pedal. No pulling or grinding. How can you be sure where the problem is coming from, FRONT or BACK?

I NEED HELP!

Most likely front, added to you might need rears because mileage tells me this. My rears were warped once, never fealt a thing, fronts? shook like crazy, pedal a bit but lots through the steering wheel. You might have something on the rotors, grease perhaps, and also, try switching tires front to back for the hellovit. You might be needing a tire rebalance if the shaking goes then to the seat.
