Default Shaking from the front end?

Its on 01 EX accord with 170k on it. I'm not sure what is causing the shaking. I can really feel it when driving down the freeway and deceleration. It almost feels like worn inner CV axle knuckles with the vibration that I feel in the car. I thought maybe it was a wheel bearing but there isn't any groaning.

I took and had the wheel weights set on the front tires and it didn't fix the issue. It does need new outer tie rod ends as the boots are ripped with grease leaking but that has never caused vibration on previous cars when this has happened.

What else should I look for? Its super annoying!

Thanks.

My avatar is busted. Dang it. Any ideas on the front end? I am doing the tie rods in the morning.

My wheel bearing is fucked and doesn't groan. Jack the car up. Grab the wheel in question and physically rock it back and forth by grabbing at 12 and 6, then 3 and 9 and shaking it back and forth. I'm betting it wiggles like a bitch. Then replace your wheel bearing. I just got one from Honda on Monday.
