Maybe both. That front spring and shocks are 26 years old

And make sure you do not have a bad tire on the front that appears good. I had this happen a few years ago that when riding at certain speeds (37 or so) it would bounce my front end every so often. After playing with it for a while, I just happen to rotate tires and it went away. I pulled one of the back tires off and found a separation occurring in the inside sidewall that was hard to see.

This!

Also, Try spinning the tires while jacked up and see if you have significant out-of-round. Anything over 1/4 can get VERY noticeable over 15 Mph.
