You should also check the ball joints at the end of the A-arms. A slightly bent axle will cause alot of shaking at high speed which may translate to the front end.

Also check the tie rods. That is how you steer and if they are worn or loose they will give they wheel room to move about. Also, make sure your wheels are tight.
