Could also be a track control arm. I have experienced this on a Capri, changed discs with no improvement then changed TCA and cured.
Re: Steering wobble
Oh no not another thread about a wheel wobble! I'm having flashbacks! Lol
Anti roll bar bushes, check them too. I had similar issue once under heavy braking (not the recent"incurable wobble", something different) and turned out that the ARB bushes were knackered, replaced them and fixed the issue.
