The clutch fan is bad for sure, they should not wobble. Replace this before it ends up in your radiator. To check the pump see if you can wiggle the pulley, If you can it's bad also. The fan will wear the pump out fast. And I doubt that your balancer is bad.
This could be a few things, first try switching a rear tire to the front and see if that helps, you may have bent the rim but you would need to look at it and see is the rim is bent then look at the tie rod end to see if its bent, you could have bent the strut or lower control arm too. i would take a look at the tie rod end and see if its bent, here the thing, you say it wobbles and pulls, a tie rod end or strut or control arm will make the car pull but not wobble, a wobble would be caused by a bent rim or tire witth a bubble and this can make the car pull, tire putting the spare tire on and see if it still pulls and wobbles, if it doesnt then you know its the rim or tire, hope this helps.
When you turn and get the wooble, which way are you turning, right or left.
When you say wooble, does the steering wheel move left and right or is it a sensation you feel in the "seat of your pants".
Let me know.

I have had similar problems with my burb also. Mine would shift into 4wd at any time, then not go back to 2wd. I have taken it to the dealer multiple times. the first time I was told in not so many words that I was crazy and it worked fine for them. the second time they experienced it and said it was a bad sensor and they replaced it and it was good for about a year. Now the warenty has expired and it is acting up again, can't wait to here what they say this time. Curse GM, they should have been allowed to fail, all they do is produce crappy products. The only way I would buy another GM product is if they start producing Hondas.
This year model has had problems with the "Encoder Motor" Its is a bolt on unit around 300 dollars if you do it yourself. I would just leave it in 2WD for now.
