My van shakes when it get up to 65mph and when it stops. Is this the rotors/drums/brakes?And how can I tell by looking which of those are bad?

Hi there,

If the vibration during braking is in the steering, this will be front rotors, general body vibration under braking will be rear rotors, steering vibration can be suspension or steering component ware, but have the wheel balance & tyre condition check first as this is often the cause.
