Pulsing noise when I brake. When I brake decently firmly my passenger side rear wheel makes like a pulsing noise, like and intermittent rubbing noise. Does anybody have any clue what this could be? Bad hub? How could it have happened? Any info would be appreciated!

Yea, lowered, rub marks was the first thing I checked, not contact anywhere, tires sidewall wasn't abnormally warm either. All my suspension components aren't showing and marks of shifting (I was looking for clean areas around the bushings to show if they had been there previously). I'm thinking maybe my rotor is warped or i have a bad hub back there, but I don't see how either could have happened, especially the rotor warping!

You have decent A/M rotors, but they still could be warped if you had a high-speed weekend. Have somebody watch your rear-wheel as you roll along and look for a wobbling wheel. Next, get it up to speed (30 MPH) and have someone watch the rear wheel as you hit the brakes. Sometimes this has shocking results! I would help you out if I was in OK and then we could get a beer, but I am a bit farther east...

Reza, if it doesn't get nasty this weekend like the weather man has been saying, we can check to see if you have any wobbling or something of the sort.

I have a hard time believing its the rotor, I'm a lil worried its maybe an axle bearing because I had to tap the stock rotor to get it off from being rusted on. We I'm gonna swap it back out to my stock rotors and see if it makes any difference, if so I'll have the new ones resurfaced. I guess I could have warped them by mis-torquing the lugs. Any opinions on the axle bearing thing?
Yea, if the weather doesn't suck!!!
