Try rotors if you are able to get some.
Its not the rotors i have no shaking while braking or anything.

Take a picture of your rack bushings, there maybe excessive space between the triangular part and the clamp... And make sure both clamps are at 80 ft/lbs of torque as per fsm. You can easily check this symptom by raising the front end and have a buddy turn the wheels lock to lock. If there is any movement what so ever, its the rack bushings and the clamps.....
This i will check i'm hopeful that this is it, and i already tightened my tensioner quite a bit.

not a bad 2nd.
get under there and look at the carrier boot.
Is it intact or fucked? lol

Its in the neighborhood of $100 to do, so you better make sure before you just start replacing shit "because" it could be it.

Really, that nissan statement says EXACTLY what your asking and symptoms.
Most of us have had it.

Have you not replaced it?
I understand that it could still be the original thing but i'm waiting on nissan to call me and tell me that the part is in and i can pick it up. This isn't a shimmy though like the TSB describes. This is near violent. Plus when i tightened the spring down thats in there there was no change what so ever.

I'll triple check it. although i did re-tighten a bunch of times and also had an alignment done.
