Default 1997 honda accord steering wheel vibrations

I have a 97 honda accord EX with 207xxx miles and have been having a hard time pin pointing my steering wheel vibrations.

Things that I have changed out less than a month ago:

-both upper control arms and ball joints
-both lower ball joints
- all bushings replaced for sway bar
- 2 brembo rotors
-2 brake calipers
-2 wheel bearings
-4 new tires all balanced

Even after all this I still get noticeable vibrations. The vibrations were definitely worse before all of these things were done, but nonetheless there are vibrations going 60+ mph. I did notice doing my ball joints that my passanger front axle can easily be moved in a 360 degree direction with hardly any force. It's very limp. My driver side axle has to have some force to move it in any direction 360 degrees. I also notice that my transmission mount (which sits on passanger side) is definitely cracked, but not completely broken. My tie rods are tight (inner and outer) as well. There is absolutely no play in my tires when I shake and move them up, down, and side to side. I've even had my tires rotated to see if it was a bent rim, but the same vibrations are still there. Any ideas on what could be the issue? Thanks.

Also, ever since I did my upper control arms and lower ball joints, I get a thunking noise sometimes when I turn sharp right or sharp left.
