I have a 92 pontiac transport, and the left front tire is making a loud thumping noise and the whole van and steering wheel shakes real bad while driving. I would like to know what could be causing this problem.

A steering/suspension component is bad, or a bearing/CV axle.

Take to shop and have it aligned. They will also check front end components.

Another possibility is the strut.
