Default shaking when breaking

ok whenever i hit the breaks i feel shaking, well its really only when i have to break hard or if i am over 40 mph really. i figured it was the rotors so i asked around and everyone told me the same thing. so i changer the pads and rotors. and now it is still doing it. what could it be if it is not the rotors?

Could be a wheel bearing or loose parts, or bolts. Just inspect everything thoughly becuase there is not much it can be.

Mine was doing it as a result of one of the pins on the caliper not sliding smoothly... I'd pull those out and regrease everything, after doing that my problem went away.

My sister's was doing that when it was on the freeway. Changed the pads and no more problems.
