Check your halfshafts ASAP. Before one of mine grenaded (leaving the car
completely immoble), I had the same shaking and crunching, and loose /
wandering steering at speed. I was extremely lucky the CV joint broke
during a 5 mph corner into a Napa store, and not on the highway on the
way there.

When I make a right hand turn of the wheel, lets say 15 degrees and
hold it,
I can feel a whole lotta shaking in the linkage. When I make hard
right
hand turns, I hear a HUGE crunching noise. My steering is slightly
sloppy
too.
I replaced the control arms and the tie rod ends. The tie rods feel
decent,
but 1 is a bit not perfect. Tires are 3k old, and were balanced.
Forward
motion in a straight line, no shaking at all.
Anybody have any ideas?
