Brake pulsing and lock up at first when cool
So my buddy helped me change my brake pads about 4 months ago and everything was good for a while but not long after it started pulsing really bad like when i slow down at an intersections it makes your head bob forward and back. and in the morning when i back out if i apply the breaks they will make like a chirp noise and tures will lock then break free and be ok. especially when the breaks warm up then it gets better. my brakes have always pusled but I had resurfacing done about a year ago.
any ideas?
any ideas?

From your description it appears you understand what causes pulsation in your brakes. I would replace the rotore,pads and make sure your calipers are not causing uneven wear of the pads,I would also check the rear brakes,they can cause it also.
