I just had the same problem and thought it was my left front cross-drilled zimmermann, turns out it was the caliper, it was seized and causing severe shuddering even when I wasn't braking. I've heard about this problem a lot and often times the problem is misdiagnosed and people replace the rotors only to have the sympotoms return in a year, even months. If it is the caliper, which it sounds like it is, rebuilt calipers are really cheap, you don't need a new one.
