Most likely you have an inner axle joint going.

No. It would only vibrate under accelleration, and you'd feel it in your *** (not like that, perv).

No. Alignments don't make stuff shake.

The answer is unbalanced wheels. Have 'em balanced and enjoy a vibration- free steering wheel.

my steering wheel shakes like a mother at idle when the fan kicks on.

Wheels need balancing... that is absolutely correct.
