Road test was good, no more high speed braking vibration and no more high speed vibration (at about 70 - 80 mph).

Old left and right side arm cracked bushings:

I have a 2004 bmw 530i this vibration while braking has been a major headache for a year I have changed everything on this car ,the steering wheel wobble will go away for about 500 to 100 miles then come back with a vengeance . This is what finally fixed it . Gor the rotors turned bought new pads only for the front NOW YOU CLEAN BOTH THE ROTER AND THE PADS WITH BRAKE CLEANER TILL YOU CAN EAT OF THEM. the cleaning took me a good 2 hours I mean clean till you wipe them with a white towel and don't see nothing. I reinstalled them its been 3 years no problem till now.
