Default 2000 F150 shaking while braking

While I apply the brakes I get pulsating shaking in the steering column and brake pedal. Any ideas on what could be wrong and how to repair the problem?

most likely your rotors are warped and need to be turned or replaced

I have the same problem. I replaced both front brake rotors, and still have the same problem. I have also have had the wheels balanced, still shakes!

Rear rotors can cause it as well.
