70mph shakes
I have been thru 3 set of tires and cannot get rid of the 70mph vibration/shakes. It is quite annoying watching and listening to the passenger seat shake from the vibration.
I have had tires balanced 2 times on each set & doesnt help.
Anyone else have this problem?

I know you have thought about it, but your ball joints are o.k. arent they??? When my joints were bad, it was exactly like the tires were out of balance. It took my quite a while to figure it out. Ruined a set of tires.

i have same problem and feel it only from the seat and see it shake things inside..
so far i have replaced track bar, all ball joints, 2 allignments, 2 tire rotations.
and still looking, next checks are ujoints, tranny mounts,when i figure out how to check them
good luck!!

Usually a vibration that comes on at a specific rpm is a balance issue - if you let a bad ujoint go it will thro the drive line out of balance. Could be a joint on it's way out too.

welp
I removed the rear driveline and center driveline support bearing (carrier)
now the vibration is gone up to 7o mph (dont wan tto go faster in 4wd)
so the driveline goes in monday to get ballanced, new Carrier, and ujoints all for $220.
that should cure it!!
