Message	I hear a single thump sound on the right side whenever the brakes are applied. The wheel shakes and there is a vibration that gets worse at higher speeds. I know everyone is going to tell me to replace the warped rotors for the shaking but what bothers me is the "thump" when press on the brakes... Car has 135K miles and has a 2 yr old suspension (Shocks, springs and all rubber replaced) I also have solid type adjustable T-rods. 2 yrs old, so it cant be bad T-rod bushings. The car steers just fine so I do not suspect steering rack bushings. Any other ideas on what is causing the thump?
