Front end juggling feel.

hey guys. Problem. When I'm at low speeds, and maybe on a rocky road, my front wheels start juggling, best way I can describe it. Can this be the same reason my stearing wheel shakes on high speeds? I got a wheel balance done, no help. anybody can help me out?

check your steering rack. i spent about $2k on suspension overhaul on other components. that was the issue.

check your tire road force(take it to a shop) and check the wheel bearings. The high speed shaking is probably the road force. Could be the rack bearing..
