Vibrations/shaking coming from the front end of the car???
Hey, so over the past few months, I've noticed a significant amount of shaking and vibration coming from the front end of the car. It is also seen in the steering wheel; as I drive and I let go of the steering wheel, it jerks back and fourth rapidly. Any ideas of where the problem could be at? Thanks in advance!

I'm guessing the problem is coming from the front of the car.
Seriously, this has been going on for a "few months"?
Get that poor baby up on stands and start going through the steering and suspension.
A problem bad enough to shake the steering wheel shouldn't be hard to track down.

Haha, yeah my bad. I've been busy with school. I smashed a ball joint on my passenger side last year, and replaced that. I was thinking the shaking might have been coming from something on that end, so this past weekend I jacked it up and checked if anything might have been loose on that passenger side. Everything seemed tight and looked fine, so I guess I might have to check the driver's side. I initially thought that maybe the ball joint I replaced might have gone loose, but now I'm not sure what I should be looking for =\

Not to be a dick, but if you have to ask questions about what's wrong with your front end. Than you should probly take it to a shop that does front end inspections. Could just be a balance too. It's near impossible to tell someone over the internet what's wrong on a front end, when there's multiple possibilities.
