I think that you need to resurface your rotors.

Has anyone else experienced a pulsing of your brake pedal. Besy way I can describe it is it sounds like a woodpecker. It is not warped rotors, the pulsing is too fast and doesn't vary with speed, the sound only varies with pedal pressure. I seems like an ABS activation to me, but is not possible at the pedal pressures and speeds that it has ocurred. It is of course an intermitent problem. This is my first experience with "hydra-boost" brakes so if any can help me out here I would appreciate it greatly....

I may well indeed, but it is not behaving like a warpped rotor problem. I really sounds like a wood pecker that makes the pedal pulse rapidly, this pulsing is not varying with speed the way a rotor problem does. Any other ideas....??

Are all your tires the same height?

To be honest, I am not exactly sure the fronts are the same as the backs. I have R rims w/ 285/35's I want to say and I am not positive off the top of my head of the fronts. Do you think this would cause an ABS problem? Now that you mention that, I guess it could, I had not thought of that....
