Shakes or Wobbles problem
2005 Dodge Caravan 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

my 05 caravan has a bad shake in the front end it shakes the worst around 45 mph and planes out when I accelerate. It does not seem to shake when I'm doing around 70 mph. It also is worse when I make a left turn and goes away when I turn right. shakes the steering wheel and both tires. also when I'm stopped and I turn the wheel it makes a clunk noise. is this the cv joints?

If you hear the noise when stoped, it doesn't sound like CV joints. What I recommend is to check the steering components such as ball joints, tie rods... Something tells me it is ball joints, but I can't tell from here.

Let me know what you find.
