breaks grab and release/ not warped though

Hi, I had a front break pulsing problem last year on my 04 t100. I had the hub replaced and new front brakes. it is as bad again as it was, but it does not feel like a warode rotor, it pulses somewhat rythmicly but not ever rotation, and then just grabs. does anyone know if thats just an adjustment to the lever, or maybe a brakeline problem? or is it warped and i have a bad service dept...

Thanks in advance, need to get this fixed, the rain stops in seattle soon and i need to get out on the road!

You might have some glaze on the rotor, did you try a light sand paper? If not, hit it with sand paper in a circle motion, maybe this will help you.
