Vibration when braking

Hello All, on a recent short trip I noticed that while braking I have a noticeable vibration thru the steering wheel. Is it safe to assume that my front breaks/rotors need changing. Is there something I could do to verify without removing wheel? Thanks in advance

 

Only if you have x-ray vision. There are a number of different causes for vibration or pedal pulsation when braking. Not all require replacing rotors, but many do. You need to look at the brakes or have them looked at.

 

You already verified, you hit the brake and it vibrates….

 

if the steering wheel vibrates its most likely warped brake rotors, check the pads as well when you pull the wheels off... you can try using a mirror and shining it through the spokes of your wheel to try and assess what the rotors look like

 

warped FRONT* rotors, if your rears are warped you'll feel it through the brake pedal and you'll have a vibration in your seat

 

Thanks for the feedback. Any recommendations? I also pull my Dutchman Aerolite 288RLS 28' travel trailer. Should I go with OEM?
