I replaced all four front u joints (they were bad), I replaced both front calipers and installed new brake pads (the rotors are fine). At speeds over 25 mph when braking, my truck "shudders". I wouldn't know if the tie rods are bad as I've never done that kind of repair before. It probably needs a front end alignment (although I experience no drift while driving) and think maybe I should get it done on the front and back as my vehicle has optional four wheel drive. It doesn't feel like the tires are wobbling, although I plan on getting all four balanced. Any idea as to why the shuddering is occuring?
