Replaced front bushings with Powerflex - Need help identifying a vibration/wobble

Folks, recently replaced both front control/thrust arm bushings with the PowerFlex options along with the balljoint with the oem option. The replacements definitely took care of the sudden play when hitting the brakes.
However, noticing a light wobble in the steering wheel at certain speeds; but more importantly, when going over a bump at mid-high speeds (40+ mph), a much more severe/vibrant shake is felt on the steering wheel.
Any thoughts/ideas as to what this could be?
