Where do you feel the vibration the most; e.g., steering wheel, throttle/brake pedal, the seat, etc.?

I just jacked the car up on each side and using a pry bar under the tire am able to get 1/2 to 1 inch of vertical movement of the tire/wheel/strut assembly. I can actually see the entire strut moving up and down with a light clunk at each end of travel. It appears that the strut mounts are wasted.
