I am experiencing a pulsing feeling while stopping. I started by swapping out front pads, rotors, and calipers for NNBS brakes and noticed the unit bearing was shot. replaced that as well, but still feel the pulsing.

has anyone ever noticed this from a damaged CV axle? or should I focus on the rear brakes

Pulsating in the pedal most likely rotors rear ,vibrating in the steering front rotors.Pulsating /thumping in the driveline/floor = many culprits

not so much in the pedal or steering, but the whole vehicle. feels like its the drivers front, which is the side i just added a new unit bearing. timkien made in the usa, same model # as the one replaced on the passenger side a year ago.

thats why i'm leaning towards the CV, but the delco part is $300. better to ask questions and diagnose

Have you jacked up the front and turned the wheels to see if you hear any noise (like clicking) or feel clicks at the CV joints? Check front suspension components? CV joints I don't think are under much load on braking, mainly turning and with acceleration. Does it happen if you're coasting to a stop or only applying brakes? If the latter, then I'd vote for rear brakes. Much easier labor then any front work ( since you already did front brakes). Good luck
