I have 2000 ford taurus with a 3.0 dohc. when I hit the brakes the front end shakes and wobbles. What could be wrong, warped rotors, ball joints or tie rods. Thanks in advance

The root cause of your problem is distorted brake rotors so at the very least you need to replace the pads and both rotors. Along with inspecting the rest of the brake system, check all the tie rod ends closely because the hammering of the brake rotors tends to wear out tie rod ends which will exaggerate the brake pulsation.
