Noise tends to go off when brake applied

Hi chillitorres,
Chock the vehicles rear wheels and loosen the front wheel nuts, jack it up and put it on chassis stands....
Remove the front wheels and then turn which ever wheel that you start with, into the direction of most convenience.....You will see that there are two bolts which are visible, and allow the sliding part of the caliper to do just that, so that the piston fitted to the inside unit presses outwards, and in turn, compresses the outer part of the caliper, so that the pads are squeezed on either side of the disc.....These two bolts DO NOT need to be removed for the job you are doing....
With your hand, feel lower down on the inside of the housing, untill you contact two larger 17mm bolts....These should be removed.....
.....Once freed of the two bolts, you'll be able to pull the caliper towards you and loosen the pads enough to lift off the whole caliper.....
......Have a piece of wire, that you can hang the caliper onto, and then hook the other end onto a convenient place.....(the suspension spring is a good place).....
.....Once removed you'll see that the disc is held by either one or two counter sunk screws....remove them and the disc can be removed....
....Replace the parts that you wanted to, and then reassemble....
When the vehicle is lowered onto its wheels, get inside and PUMP the brake pedal, four or five times....You'll have had no need to open the brake fluid lines, and therefore, no need to bleed the brakes.....Once the job is completed, they should feel higher and firmer than when you began....
Once you're happy with the 'feel' of the brakes.....happy motoring.....
Best regards Johngee10
SOURCE: While heavily applying the brakes at high speed the truck shakes.
If the front of the truck is doing all the shaking then the front brakes are doing all the stoppong. You need to check the rear brakes and change if neccessary. If they do not need to be changed then you should adjust them accordingly. I hope this helps. Don.t forget to rate my answer, thanks.

Check your brake pads first,as they have a wear warning clip on them.so if you hear a loud screaming noise.Then its quite possible they have worn causing ur warning lights to come on.And i would get anouther quote as that is quite dear for a pump replacement.If it is the pump.good luck pippall!!

Most likely warped front brake brake rotors. Chances are you can feel it at lower speeds too, but to a lesser degree... hope this helps.
