My parents 1992 toyota previa shakes violently when the brake is applied, and the pedal pulses up and down alot when the brakes are applied. the ABS system hasn’t worked in years because the wires to the sensors are cut.  
  
 things that have been replaced to try to fix this,  
  
  
  
 new rotors,  
  
 new front right side caliper,  
  
 bleed brakes  
  
  
  
 the car doesn’t shake during acceleration or coastingm everything else on the car works just fine.

This could be a very worn out front suspension or steering system, and requires some serious exploration, because it is a safety risk.
