Another Death Wobble Incident?

Lately I have been noticing a little ruff ride in my truck and then I had the notorious death wobble happen. I started diagnosting by getting my tires balance and rotated thinking that might be the issue, it wasn't... then took my truck to front end specialist and had tie rods replaced.. wasn't that either...death wobble happen again this morning at about 45 when i hit a bump, it shook big time and i had to slow down quickly.. shocks only have 50,000 on them. can the front end stabilizer shock cause this? I have around 100,000 on it, or dose any one have another ideas. Now I'm thinking maybe something in the stearing. I have 208,000 miles on truck. Any ideals will be appreciated.thx
