Am familiar with warped rotors when bad can cause shaking that continues. But with this one the shaking only happens when u first hit the brake pedal then goes away, isn't this usually an indication a possible lower control arm bushing failure?

I have seen the lower ball joints cause this issue which is serviced with the lower control arm, can please respond with the results of your other posts? This is how the site operates, here is how to change out the ball joints. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
