I second the rear drum check.  Believe it or not, even new drums should be t=
urned before use, as I recently found while replacing the drums on my Toyota=
 Tacoma.  Regarding the front discs, I'd go for the upgraded factory solid r=
eplacements from Brembo. =20

<div>Have you checked the brake drums on the rear?&nbsp; In the day it was very 
common, especially in VW's, to find warped rear drums, because the parking 
brake was pulled up tight while the drums were warm.&nbsp; It would cause a

 that you could feel as a pulsing in the brake pedal.</div>
