Default after blow out had bad vibration

ok back on val-day, i had a blow out at 50mph up in the front of the truck, it took out a rim and luckly i didnt slam on my breaks and such i just down shifted the truck down to 1, and then slowly applyed my parkin brake....

then well a couple days past i got new tires, well at 40 to 45 id have the worest vibration, so i thought ok the rim must be really bent badly...so i went and got a new one, threw it on there a couple days later it came back, i bought my new tires from a small tire shop family friend i thought ok maybe his blancer isnt workin right or something, so i take to sams club 3 times with in 2 weeks, still nothing....

took it to a friend at firestone store where i know hed blacence the tires for sure....lasted a couple hrs then came back....

im at 50 bucks so far of blancing them again and again i then have them rotated to the back and still nothing.....

the small tire shop then decides well lets cliam under there and see if a tranny mount or u-joint is shot, turns out the drive shaft went up 1/4 of an inch....so i took it to my buddys at aamco...they put 4 new u-joints and i drove down the road and the problem dissapeard....

now i just need to get the tires rebal because i can feel it in the tires now not the steering and the truck heh
