Wobble in the suspension

When I got my truck it had a wobble when driving down the road. Not all the time but at certain speeds. The rear suspension was done first, new TA bushings, 4 inch springs, shocks relocated and new shocks. Still had the wobble. Next I rebuilt the front end. New 2.5 inch spindles, 2 inch springs, shorter shocks, new tie rod ends, ball joints, properly mounted PS box, draglink, idler arm, CA shafts, rotors and calipers. everything was replaced. I put on junkyard wheels and tires and still had the wobble. I thought it was the tires being out of balance. Yesterday I put on my brand new rally wheels with new tires. Still have the wobble. The only issue I didn't get to that I noticed was the radiator support is missing one bolt and the other isn't bolted to the frame. I don't think that is the issue though. This drives me nuts after spending so much time and money rebuilding all of the suspension and steering. It feels like a tire seriously out of balance but it felt the same with the junk tires and it's exactly the same with the new tires and wheels. The new ones were installed at a reputable shop o I know they are balanced.
