What percentage of the braking force comes from the rear brakes in a typical front wheel drive vehicle?
If memory serves, the typical braking force ratio for any automobile with front disc and rear drum brakes is 60% front, 40% rear +/-.
Shaky steering wheel when braking?
bad front brakes.

Why does the steering wheel vibrate when braking?
You possibly have warped brake rotors on the front. Or Bad Wheel Bearings.
When braking on bike you should first use front or back brake?
When you brake, you will experience something called "dynamic weight transfer", which means that the front wheel will take more weight and the rear wheel will carry less. And the more weight you have on a wheel the harder you can brake w/o locking the wheel up. So as long as surface conditions are good (and traction is high) the front wheel can do pretty much all your braking. Rear braking is good when traction is poor, as a rear wheel skid is easier to deal with than a front wheel skid. Rear braking can also be helpful if you're doing really long descents, to prevent the front brake from overheating.
Why disc brakes are used in two wheelers front wheel?
Braking power transmitted to the front wheel is high compare to that of rear wheel normally(60:40 or 70:30) in motor cycle.Disc brakes which has high magnitude of braking power compare to that of drum brakes are used in motor cycles to absorb the more braking power.
Left front wheel pulsates when braking?
Check the rotor, it's probably warped.
How much of the braking is typically done by the front brakes in a front-wheel-drive vehicle?
10% 30% 50% 70%
What would cause the steering to pull to one side during heavy braking but not during light braking The rotors calipers wheel cylinders have been replaced on front and rear.?
My guess would be that you might have a bad brake hose to one of the front calipers.
Why disc brake applied on front wheel in bikes?
Some bikes have disc brakes on both wheels, but the front brake is more important. During braking you'll encounter something called dynamic weight transfer, which basically means that more of the bikes weight will be supported by thr front wheel and less by the rear. As the front wheel gets heavier the friction against the surface increases and it'll be to brake even harder, causing even more of the bike's weight to rest on the front wheel. All this heavy braking means that the front brake needs to be better at dispersing heat and it needs to be more easily modulated, as it's very hard to recover if the front wheel would lock up.
What kind of skids occurs when the brakes are applied so hard that the front or rear wheels lose traction?
For rear drive cars - it's called a fishtail. You brakes work better on the front. Anybody who sailed over the handlebars when braking just the front wheel on a bike is called a head plant, (ouch)
1994 Lincoln Mark VIII vibrates in steering wheel when braking over 40 What do you think?
Sounds like your front brake rotors are warped.
