thanks for everyones help. i got the new ball joints in, new shocks, new axle shaft and one wheel bearing, new brake pads and rotors. i also replaced the rubber grease caps on the outer tierods. clead out all the old grease and repacked them.
i figured out what the vibration was. one wheel had no balance weights and the other wheel only one weight. that was on the rear which had new tires installed recently.
i also had another issue. i opend up the factory sunroof only to have it not close. i was so upset. turns out the computer for the sunroof went bad. wth?! pulled the little computer out and jumper wired the sunroof motor to get it closed. what a pain in the backside.
