good luck with everything but your heading in the right direction checking balance instead of spending money just yet on parts 
Very bad vibrations between 50-60 mph under load

automatic?... shaking under load, and normal on no load screams torque converter... blew 2 trannys w/ 2 torque converters
it it was rims/tires it would do it once you passed a certain speed, load or non load. you said all the ball joints/control arm bushings etc are good
PS: NOT SAYING THIS IS DEFFINITLY YOUR PROBLEM

It's a manual tranny... Yeah ball joints, tie rod ends, and all that are in good shape. Well to update the info I had provided... I went into discount tire, and well they balanced the tires and since I just did the alignment like a week and a half ago... I ruled out the rims and tires as the problem... So now I'm really stumped...

You need to have someone put a load on the engine while you look at the engine to see if it shifts a lot.

check ur front motor mount
Sorry to question the advice, but I'm just kinda curious... If it was the motor mount wouldn't I get vibrations within a certain RPM range? Or even if I were to rev up the car while it's stationary? I did have a question, and it might be a stupid question, but when I've gotten under the car I did notice that the right axle seems to have a rubber donut around it (I'm ASSUMING it's some sort of weight)... Well I was just wondering if a few of you could check your rides and tell me if BOTH axles are supposed to have those things on them... Because my ride only has that thing on the RIGHT axle...

just went and lifted the front end... i'm not 100% sure what you mean by rubber donut things... but neither of my axles have anything that match that description... unless you're refering to the cv boots... but you don't seem like someone who would not know that only having one boot is bad. so if you have a pic of this "donut" thing, thatd be good.
yeah it's definetly not cv boots or anything... it's around the middle of the axle shaft. I well take a picture of it, hopefully today... I will post it up asap. I go to community college, and I am taking a class on brakes, to make a long story short... My teacher has extensive knowledge about various automotive areas... And he's just as stumped as I am... Well we lifted the car and he pointed that particular "donut" out on my right axle and told me to find an identical model and check... So I decided to ask on here... But like I said, I'll get the picture up asap.
