Default brakes still thumping
my front brakes are still thumping after having the rotors cut again and having new calipers put on. I am thinking its still my brakes cause i can feel the brake pedal pulsate, but i am starting to consider the possibility of a bad axle or a bad differential please help i am so lost on this problem

the rear drums could be out of round, get the drums machined and see if it goes away
