Wheel wobble

CHEVROLET SILVERADO

I have a 94 silverado 4x4 ext cab, 100,000 miles, with a after market 400 small block engine. I also have a 4 inch body lift and 6 inch suspension lift. The problem that I have been having lately. I have never had this problem befor, is the front driver side wheel wobbles like crazy when I get up to around 45mph. But once I get up around 50 it stops. So far I have had the tire balanced and the front end aligned. I also know its not the rim. So if you could help out that would be great.

Wheel bearing? Lift kits and big tires will wear it out pretty fast

I would also check the ball joints, some shops dont even look at them for an alignment, trust me, I went thru 4 alignments on the same truck in 2 years at different shops and they all missed the ball joints, after new tie rods, cv shafts, rotors and hubs, the ball joints were worn enough to cause the same problem and was missed in the alignments.I am not a certified mechanic, but, this is what happened to me, about $2,000.00 later
