Shimmying bad

I have a question that I hope someone out there can answer for me.
I was driving at highway speed, and hit a small patch of rough road. The truck almost jerked the steering wheel out of my hands. It went into a dance about 10 times worse than when you loose a wheel weight or the wheel is out of balance. I took it in aand they replaced the ball joints and track bar, and aligned the front end.

It did it again after about 60 miles on the highway, I took it back and they can't find anything that might have caused the problem. Any help would be appreciated. Bob
