Car shakes after braking.

If I'm driving over 60 mph and I press the brakes The front driver side shakes. I've replaced the lower control arms on the front both where completely worn but shaking still continues any advice?

have you had your brakes inspected? could be your rotor...could be that one of your brake pistons isn't moving smoothly and causing your pads to wear unevenly causing a vibration.

I plan on having them serviced but haven't decided whether or not to change them myself or not I know I need to change the front rotors.

The place I found to replace pads and rotors is doing it for a little cheaper then it would be for me based of a little price checking.
