Front end shake (ball joints?)

Hey all

Just bought a 2003 2500 4x4 with 228000km on it for a darn good price, there is some dents and scratches but o-well and possibly and new front end in the future, the problem is when I step on the brake the truck shake like a son of a gun, as if the rotors are warped, the when it it was up on the jack we check the bearings on the front and there is a far bit of movement on the top of the tire when shaking it,

What the problem, bearings, joints, both

Thanks

With those miles it's probably both. Especially if you run larger than stock tires.
