Trying to fix wobbly steering

I've done a few things that have helped somewhat but my steering is still wobbly. I started with rotating & balancing the tires, then new wheel bearings, then an alignment which helped the most (the guy said my toe was off by 1.5 deg) but it's within spec now and it still has some wobble and still pulls a little as well. I had a friend of mine look at everything and he said my ball joints seem fine as well as my tie rod ends. So what else could be causing the wobble?

Replacing the motor mounts (both passenger side and tranny mount) reduced the wobble a lot on my 2k3. There is still some and i would love to get rid of it completely. Subscribing.
