Default Shaking when Braking

Hi All, I have new rotors and pads (OEM) in the front and new calipers about a year ago. It shakes really badly when braking. Took it to a shop and they replaced both front struts $$$. It almost feels like the caliber on one side is binding but I checked the temperature on both the driver and passenger side and the discs are the same temp after an hour of driving. Before I replace the front caliper is there anything else I should look at or how do I confirm it's the caliper?


Thank you

I mean, I would start with looking at the rotors. Its possible they overheated and warped a bit.

Most likely the rotors are warped due to improper torqueing of the lugnuts.
