How about the hub?

Yeah, hub might be bent. Has the car ever been in an accident?

well, i have an update, so if anyone ever experiences this problem, this is it......we put it up on the lift and clear as day saw the passenger side front axle was completely shot.......the component that sits midway on the passenger side axle, the name of slipped my mind at the moment, was totally torn, so on to the parts shop again, thanks everybody for your inputs, i think someone even mentioned the axle.

the cv joint is what was torn, and since i can get the part cheap im just doing the whole passenger side axle as to not provoke other components to break from the stress from this

I still dont see how an axle would cause a vibration? A clicking noise yeah , but a vibration?
