idler arm or ball joints?

I have an 03 fl50 supercab. I just put me 22's off of my crew cab on. I get vibration when i come to a stop and turn. the wheels aren't rubbing, aligment's good, inner and outer tie-rods are good. the only idea i can think of is the lower ball joints b/c when i go down hill it quits, but when going up hill and take the wieght off the front end it's even worse. I'm stumpped Any suggestions??

You mentioned it happening when you stop. Could it be warped brake rotars? Do you only feel it when you apply the brakes?

It happen's when i accelerate in a turn from a dead stop. i just recut the rotaors about two weeks ago when i changed the brakes. At first o thought it was the wheels, i checked the balance and had them put on a machine. I put the factory wheels back on and still same vibration. Thats why it's throwing me for a loop. This saturday i'm going to break everything down and try to reserect where the problems at. Any help would be much apprieciated.
Nice truck!!!!!

i am thinking that is a ball joint issue myself, I had a truck that did the same thing and it was that coupled with the front differential was needing u-joints. that could be it as well.
