help a newbie out

So Ive owned this evo for all of 5 months and I inherited a problem already. Its on the passenger front. Between braking at 35-75 the wheel is shaking pretty bad. I figured it was wheel bearing. Replaced that and still having the issue. Now I'm thinkin it might be my axle. Anyone else have experience with this?

I would get the wheels reballanced. May have lost a weight.

Missed the while breaking part. In that case probably rotors.

Go to google and search "stoptech brake pad bed in". That should get you going in the right direction. If the problem persists have your rotors checked for warping or runout (both unlikely).

axles generally don make that happen they click and clunk now when i had warped both front rotors on my 03 evo 8 she was a wild ride to slow down from anything above like 45 i would pull them out n have them inspected / turned or just upgrade to some slotted rotors

but could be the pre mentioned balance weight on the tire itself but most of the time out of balance tires will shake and vibrate contiuously above a certain speed (sorry 4 spelling i am not the best at that lol)

Could possibly be brakes maybe rotors or a caliper hanging up check those things if the brakes are low replace them all but if rotors look new go have them machine if possibleGL with the problem
