I pulled the front wheels off the pickup this afternoon and I'm wondering what I should do now. The truck has plenty of stopping power, enough to lock the tires at will. But they squeal, they pull a little bit to the left, and vibrate.
I'm looking at these brakes and I'm wondering what I should replace. Due to the vibration/lumpy stops I think I'm replacing the rotors. The calipers have a good bit of buildup on them, but I think with some wire brushing/cleaning they could be respectable. And the hub, which I would have to get pressed into new rotors. Is that fine? Would you guys reuse it?
This is my first brake job attempt on a truck, especially anything older than 10 years. Could use some experienced opinions.
