I've got a 4 x 4 F250 with full bumper replacement and add a left (spring) for the additional weight. Ever since last brakejob, the front end will bounce just a bit when brakes applied kinda like one of the tires is out of round...course it's not because otherwise it would do that all the time. Does this sound like a mis-aligned brake caliper? Worn disks? Warped rotor? It seems to happen when brakes first applied and if you let off then slowly reapply, the impact is diminished. Your thoughts PLEASE. Thanks.

you need new rotors or rotors turned also check your tires for cupping

sounds like you need new shocks or struts. any time the front end bounces or dips excessively when coming to a stop, wornout shocks or front struts are usually the culprit.

Bouncing or diving would be shock related---pulling, grabbing or veering would be brake related.
