Well, I am coming up on 33K on my '04 ST and I have developed a shaking in the front end. At first I was thinking it was the tires, but I rotated them and the shaking is still there. I started doing experimentation on my daily drive to work and realized that there is a slight pull to the left as I drive which gets worse when I brake. The brake pedal doesn't throb as I push on it, but as the truck is already shaking, I might be missing it. Seems isolated to front left. No grinding noise from the bearings in either direction so I ruled them out - I would be surprised at 33K that they would be bad (if so, they are Ford's problem).
I am about to order new rotors and pads for my ST (Easier than getting them turned) and wondered if there was anything I was overlooking? The symptoms seem to point to the brakes as I tested the ball joints and tie rod ends when I was rotating the tires.
Sound about right?
