I've had tension strut bushing so bad the wheel would move close to 3/4" whem hitting the brakes but still no shake from braking at speed. Speed shake from loose suspension always has been the rear/inward control arm in my experience.
I offered to sell him my "Old Thrust Arms" and install polyurethane bushing in them, but he stated that he already "Bought" the Thrust arm. So base on this I'm assuming he just replaces the Thrust arms. I could be wrong but I was right on the Thrust arm being the problem and not the Rotor that a shop who actually looked at the car told him.
