Default 97 Civic EX vibrating/knocking...

When I apply the brakes, my steering wheel and break pedal shake/vibrate like the breaks and/or rotors are bad. I checked them and the rotors are fine and the pads have plenty of use on them. I got my front passenger axel replaced a few weekends ago (due to a knocking sound when I made right turns), and the sound is still there too. The driver’s side on looks fine.

What else could cause the two problems? I don’t think they are related.

The knocking when I turn is subtle, but noticeable and occurs late in the turn.

The tires are within 6 months old.
