Front Right Shake

Hi All,

I have a shake from the front right when braking at highway speed. I don't notice it when braking below 40 miles an hour. I had thought it was a warped rotor and replaced those. I also have had the tires rotated to be sure it wasn't a wheel balance issue. After doing that the steering rack went bad so I replaced that and hoped the vibration may be associated. unfortunately no, it was not associated.... I did notice that occasionally when first braking while leaving the driveway that the front right will act as if the anti-lock is engaging during the first brake pedal depression, but won't do it again and not every time. Does this sound like a caliper issue or is there someting I am missing?

TIA

Sound like it could be a worn out ball joint. Jack the front of the truck up and push try to push the tire in/out of the fender well. If it wiggles some, then you need to replace the ball joint.
