Default Help, experiencing mad brake dive!

Im getting a lot of brake dive, and the car wobles up and down when I'm braking. I also notice that my front tires are extemely saggy, even at 40psi. Whats going on here? I think its the shocks. Could there be somthing else causing this? I just had a set of front auto zone rotors installed 3 months ago.

Your front shocks are gone.

Could there be somthing else wrong with the car besides the shocks? Also which shocks do you recomend that I get? I only want somthing to replace the ones I have on now, nothing fancy.
