I Love this 1992 chevy astro had it for ten years but lately ive had an issue that while braking it has a really bad shake while braking on the left side and no one has been able to tell what it is. Ive changed calipers,shocks,brake pads, ball joints and the whole supporting arm on that side and it does not seem to help.

You've got to be kidding. This is just textbook distorted rotors. Any first year tech would know that.
Inspect the front end carefully because any worn steering or suspension parts will greatly exaggerate the problem.
