I own a 2005 jeep liberty sport 4x4. Recently I hear a noise from the care that sounds like a thudding noise. It is a repeditive noise that seems rotation to regards to the speed of the car. I had my rotars replaced 4 months ago and this noise has been there for the past 2 months. I wonder if this could be related to my rotars. The only thing is that my wheel does not shake at low speeds when I brake. it will shake when I brake going high speeds.  
  
  
  
 Could those noise be the rotars? Also a buddy of mine mentioned maybe my front differental could be the problem. One last thing, my U-joints were checked and they are fine.  
  
  
  
 Thanks for the help!

It must be a bad tire, likely a tread separation. Get them checked. Soon.
