Default Wobble when braking

Okay, so I've gone through my truck to see what could possibly cause this. I'm pretty confident that it's the rotors, but I'm not entirely sure. I've checked the front suspension and the cv shafts. Also something else that I notice when I'm driving on occasion the steering wheel shakes I'm not really sure what would cause this as I've checked everything and it seems to be fine.
Thanks in Advance!

If its only when you break.. get your rotors cut Orilies still does it for 15-25 a pop.. they can tell you right away if they need replacing or not.. if it still does it then look at your Tierod ends..

set up a dial indicator and check for the run out on the brake rotors, the spec should be found the Haynes manual.
