Death Wobble at 40 mph or so

OK guys today as i was driving down the highway at around 40 or so i got really bad death wobble.(wheel shaking terribly) I got home and checked my tie rod-that was ok, checked the tie rod ends and they seemed to be fine except for the right side so i replaced that, made sure all the wheel bearings were ok and they were, and then checked the torque on my lug nuts. Someone mentioned to me maybe my steering stabilizers are bad..any ideas or comments?

Front track bar is a common problem. If you still run a stock bar or use the stock axle side mounting location, check it to make sure the hole is not ovaled out and that all it tight. Check the frame end too.
