Almost always a warped rotor or a hard spot.
Jacked it up yesterday and put a dial indicator on both rotors. Left rotor had .005 run out Right rotor had .014 and was all over the place. This is a wilwood kit with non-vented rotors. May have to use the vented units?

Had that problem when we first put the Wilwoods on the front. They warped like crazy first time out. The kit came with solid rotors they called 5/16 but they actually measured .300. After much "persuasion" they were convinced to send me 3/8" inch rotors (which actually measured .355) and a template so I could drill them myself.
After about 1000 passes they're still OK.
BTW, .014 is WAY too much.

Allen, you could try havig them turned one time to straighten them out and see how long they hold up this time
