2003 mitsubishi galant, 4 cyl, 120,000 mi,

the rt front wheel shudders when braking from high speed, is it possible that it's cv joint.
I have a 94 eclipse 4 cyl, new pads ect does the same thing.
In short is the vibration a typical cv problem??
I have also noticed a hum from the drive train recently on the 2003 and a clunk on accelleration on the 94

Did you turn the front rotors ? Rotors are so cheep now new ones instead of turning is recomended. Sounds like a rotor out of round or not true and has high spots in it. Let me know.
