Question front/right vibration?

Ok I first bought new tires and shake/vibration I had was minimized like 80%. Then noticed brakes on right front where sticking ultimately changed both front Calipers, brake shoes, rotors..now about 90% minimized...I noticed though alot less what seems like a vibration/shake on right front wheel whenever making steady right turn at most above 40 mph but felt it at time under 20 mph also. I've changed the right front axle due to busted boot but as I already knew that wasn't gonna fix rest cause unrelated. Anyways had tire shop re-balance incase it was that but no still the same. It's most apparent when driving right long steady curves...what could it be?

I've spent over a grand so far which was ok work on brakes and tires needed anyways..but now I can't play the replace this replace that so best options please.

TIA

Get it up in the air and shake down the front end. Could be an inner or outer tie-rod end.

Shake down? As in pull front wheels down ans see if they move? My friend said he picked up car to shake wheel to see if it's maybe the control arm but said it's not the issue after shaking it
