Arrow Violent front end shaking/55+ MPH/'82 300SD

Violent front end shaking/55+ MPH /'82 300SD/201,000 miles. I suspected worn front shocks. I installed "known good" - by MBZ mech - used front bilstein shocks(removed KYB shocks). Lifted front of vehicle by frame cross member, checked play front to back, side to side on both left and right wheels, feels OK. Have not done anything else to front end, except visual, as of yet. Any ideas? I'm open to suggestions, thanks guys.
