stumped on my problem

I decided to do my front pads since they were begining to squeek when i applied the brakes. So i did them and also bought wheel bearings while i was at it. I did my passanger side wheel bearing but never did my drivers side. Soon after i noticed that if i made a left turn, it sounded like my passanger side lug nuts were loose and the wheel was rattling. So i checked it out, and found some problems (bushings in the caliper were gone, replaced it).After doing the bearings the first time i jacked up the car and found a good amount of play in the wheel, so i did the bearings again, tried a new rotor etc etc and nothing has worked. Im stumped now. So right now ive done, rotor, caliper, ceramic pads and bearings mulitiple times. That side also squeeks every now and then when breaking.The only thing that has stayed consistant when im changing everything is that ive never taken out the ceramic pads thinking they had nothing to do with the problem..but could they? The ball joints and tire rod ends are fine as well.
