Front end shimmy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a problem with my 78 k-30 front end. Every time I hit a ripple or dip in the road my front end shimmy's or vibrates. I found that my steering stabilizer was infact shot. I have replaced it with a new one and it seems like it got a bit better,but now at different road conditions it still does the same thing but not as violent. Any input?? I have replaced the steering box and a worn pitman arm also.
Thanks Truk59 in Ct.
