If you're pedal vibrates with the brake applied, it indicates that the front brake rotors are worn unevenly. Imagine a set of rolling hills and the pads trying to follow the peaks and valleys. That same up and down motion is transferred to your foot, and that's the pulsation you're feeling. It's a common problem on many cars, including the Jeep. The best cure is to have the rotors machined "on the car" using a special machine. This trues the rotors on the same plane as the hub they are mounted to. Also need to make sure the brake calipers are operating smoothly and the wheels are properly torqued when reinstalled.
