do you have rear drums? drums can also become warped and cause slight pulsation. also maybe just do a thorough check of your entire suspension.

Check your inner/outer tie rods, probably wouldn't hurt to check your ball joints too.

well the ball joints are bad they just make alot of noise so i just squirted some lithium grease into em they shut up. and i have a 94 so no drums in the rear.
well needed to buy new ball joints anyway so i guess i will get some new tie rods too..
couldent hurt..

your rotors could be warping under pressure, and straightening after they cool.
