My 93 gs300 has a severe vibration under light braking. Allready replaced the front brake rotors,pads,shims, lower ball joints all with factory parts. I am at a loss. No Abs light is on.![Frown](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

Check lower front control arm bushings, it's a two piece arm so besure to check both front and back bushings, it's usually the strut rod bushings that go bad. (caster arm bushing)

Thanks for the replies. I measured rotor runout .002 or less, isn't that ok? Wouldn't I feel vibration through the steering wheel if control arm bushings were bad. I don't feel it in the steering wheel, I feel in the car. the shifter even shakes!

The rear rotors could be the culprit or maybe you have a stuck caliper that is not releasing all the way. I had this problem years ago and it was due to rear rotors.
