Warped brake rotors are common. Have them machined. There are other possibilities, but let's stick with the common stuff first. Depending on truck weight, these could be "captive" rotors which require a lot of disassembly to remove. Many shops have equipment to machine them on the truck without removing them.

There are also many things do-it-yourselfers can do or not do to cause a shimmy or wobble.
