HELP - Front end shaking

Can anyone tell what might be the cause of this problem? My car travels fine until I come to an ALMOST complete stop, it begins to shake at the front end. When at a complete stop, it does not shake. The problem is worse when the steering wheel is not centered. I checked the motor mounts and they are fine. <P>Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's not the brakes. The engine shakes not the wheels. Thanks.

Your Idle might be going really low then, others have had this prob, causing the engine to vibrate near the resonance frequency of the mount-engine system.<BR>If it is because of the Idle droping you can: A. try to find softer engine mounts (this should lower the resonance frequency), or B. Try to make your engine not drop it's Idle speed so much (theres a lot of posts on this).
