Changed all the brakes but i still get brake judder

(1/3) > >>

JimsMowing:
As above i changed all the brakes bar the front discs as they were the same thickness as the new ones and were not warped. 300 miles later and they are still juddering when you brake, not so noticable at everyday driving speeds up to 55-60 but get on the motorway and all hell brakes loose!

Any thoughts as to what this could be? I know my shocks squeek but could this cause the juddering if they are completely knackered?

street_moto:
Hi, shocks that are past their best could certainly cause the symptoms you describe! Not that expensive to try either if you're handy with the spanners.

AbyssDJ:
checked stuff like prop shaft play/uj's?

As said, you need to check everything that can wear. UJ's, steering ball joints, front and rear radius arm bushes.

Do you have MT's....., these can cause these issues to. If you have a mate with standard tyres, swap them over and see what's, what.

how did you check the front discs werent warped. ? .iff you fit new discs you should check run out with a dti guage , but not many people do. its not so much the run out that causes the brake judder its the thickness variation to the disc the run out causes. iff you have checked the disc around 4 or 5 spots round the disc with a micrometer you shouldnt have much variation. cheers alan.......
