Having a problem with my Ram 1500 2 wheel drive rear brakes. The brakes are pulsing sometimes when the truck is coming to a stop. Vibrates the truck so hard that it shakes the whole truck.Steering wheel does not shake during the stop. Parts replaced are drums , brakes , new brake springs, and new wheel cylinders and for the hell of it new shocks. ABS has been looked at by the Dodge dealer, no error codes for ABS system to be found anywhere. Ok what did I miss? Wife's truck and she is not real happy with this problem. Ready to invest the money to convert the rear brakes to disc brakes, if I can't fix this problem. Anybody have any ideas what to do next? :banghead:

does this problem occur on hard or slow stops? wet or dry pavement? 4 wheel abs or rabs? in an open, safe area, try to recreate prob by stopping vehicle with park brake only--hold park brake release and slowly apply park brake. did you recreate prob?
