Well im getting violent shaking in the front at random times. I have tightened anything i can think of. Replaced the brake booster, master cyclinder, and front rotors. Changed wheels still is happening. Any ideas? Could it be the wheel bearings?
 
Are you sure it is random? When you replaced the front rotors, did you replace the pads also? If your wheel bearings are bad, you would hear them making noise just driving down the road; they make a hum that gets louder with speed and gets progressively worse over time. Try to pin-point exaclty when it happens....
 
Put one of your front corners up in the air and have someone hold the steering wheel while you grab the tire and wiggle it from side to side. How much play do you have down there? It could be some realllllly bad tie-rod ends, either inner or outer. Or it could be a bad ball joint. Make sure your rack and pinion mounts are tight and both of them are actually up there. Keep taking things apart till you find the problem.
