Car had what feels like the classic front end shimmy. Replaced lower control arms to get all new bushings and ball joints. Put in new sway bar bushings--as long as I was down there anyway. Now it's all smooth, except when braking. Feels like the old shimmy, right around 40MPH, not at faster or slower speeds. Shakes the steering wheel, but no pulsing feel through the brake pedal (like warped rotor). Rotors and pads look fine.

Any other suggestions??

TIA
