need a little help

OK, I amk getting a "wobble" driving at highway speeds in the front end and when I hit the brakes at higher speeds the steering wheel vibrates as well. Now, I know if it is just in the steering wheel when braking it is the rotors, but I also get it just when driving around 60mph. SO , here is where I am out of ideas. I just put on new pads and rotors 2 months ago, new shocks at the same time and rotated, balanced and alligned the car. WHAT ELSE IS LEFT? i cant get rid of the wobble?

All the stuffs you mentioned, assuming they are all good, then what is left is balljoin and U-Join, bearings.

just to eliminate tires, rotate the tires again. Double check that all brake and suspension bolts are tight. After that the steering linkages should be checked that they are tight with no play.

there is a thread called "steering wheel shake" which discusses this problem. Do a search.
