Default ef help

i just replaced the rotors, brake pads and brake calipers on my ef because it was shaking when i pressed the brake. after switching out all these components, the car still shakes upon pressing the brakes. the pads, rotors, and calipers are not even a month old. im not sure what the problem is. i was told that i may have worn bushings or that my ball joints can be going bad, are these relative to the shaky steering wheel? any other opinions as to why my car shakes while braking? i have new tires and new axles

take a good look at your tie rods and your front end bushings,
or you could possibly have a warped/bent hub. you'd potentially not feel that until the caliper transmits the vibration by clamping on the rotor.
a guy on another forum i am on said he put 3 sets of rotors and pads on his EF before he looked at his hub and turns out thats what it was the whole time.
