Default death wobble plz help

hey guys i been on here for awhile recently ran into a problem and i cant figure it out. sunday i went wheeling and snapped my driver side cv shaft near the diff. today i got a new one installed and added new fluid to it. on the drive home it felt good til i hit bumps in the road and caused the entire steering wheel and front end to shake like crazy. i correctd the shake by slamming on the brakes and turning the steering wheel fast to one side and continued to drive it longer with no issues til i hit another bump and same thing happend. i dunno if my driver side wheel berring is messed or my tie rods.

I would suggest raising the front end up, and place blocks or jacks as far out on the lower A arms as possible and check the tire in the 9 and 3 position for any wobble, have a spotter help to identify any play in the front components
