Brake shake fix
So, spent a bit of time going through posts to weed out good and bad and useless and came up with a positive result.
People, adjust your rear brakes, seems pointless but it eliminated 80% of my shake right off the top.
Pulled the front wheels, one of my rotors was badly scored. The other beginning to score.
Replaced both rotors and pads, vibration/judder completely gone.
Had the rotors not been scored so badly, it may have been a zero dollar fix.
This has only 26,ooo km.

Great that you have this figured out.
Most of us have kept the rear drums adjusted, but the shake came from the LCA bushings, I've changed to the larger diameter SS non Brembo front discs and changed out the LCA bushings to Moog problem solvers . No shake in 2 years of driving!
