Hey guys, my 93 with stock wheels and tires developped a vibration. So far, checked brakes for worped roters and that's not it, put on EE swaybars hoping it was the bushings but that wasn't it, alinement is perfect, camber is perfect, I do have a clunk when making very sharp corners. I'll be taking it to Pep boys this weekend, but before I pay 20$ for front end inspection, I wanted to ask you all. Almost forgot, the vibration is only, repeat, only present when braking and it seems like the slower thebrake the more noticeable the vibration.
 






Which side?
Heat checked rotors. They can look fine but have hard spots on the surface causing a pulsing feeling.

Radius arm bushings are notorious. (This would be my bet) The right side has to have a heat shield to protect it from the exhaust.

Wheel bearings loose but this is usually worse at freeway speeds.

Ball joints
