Have a bad wobble on the front left around 40. When I hit the brakes it goes away but comes back randomly. Any ideas?

Could be several things. First. are the lug nuts tight? Wheel bearings adjusted? Bad tire? Maybe, a sticking wheel cylinder?, that when the brakes are released the shoes stay against the drum, perhaps taking some of the wobble out and somehow by the rotation of the wheel they work themselves back in???

Could be worn suspension components, out of alignment, bent wheel, out of balance tire, even bad shock absorbers. What you describe sounds most like a bent wheel or out of balance tire.

Best have it checked by a good front end man or mechanic. Maybe a real old timer if you can find one.
