Default Brake problem

I have a 97 Silverado that shakes the front end when I press the brake . I have put new rotors and bearings and had the rotors turned and it still does it any idea what to try next ?

Have you checked ball joints and tie rods as well ? You might have a caliper hanging but they will generally stay hung and drag even when you're not on the binders.

Check rear drums, tire balance, wheel bearings and control arm bushings.
