bad vibration at about 70mph
Starting about a month and a half ago,whenever I start to approach 40mph and up my pickup begins to vibrate. Nothing terrible until I hit about 70mph, when it really begins to shake. Its not the tires; discount gave me four brand spanking new tires today, and the problem still exists. I am running 3.90 gears, and I read the driveshaft thread, but I don't think it has anything to do with the driveshaft. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
thanks guys!
thanks guys!

No, my pickup hasn't been lowered.
As for the driveshaft, why do y'all say its that....? I mean, lots of people get their gear ratio changed; this is the first time I've heard of that?

you could have dinged the shaft with an object from the road or hit it aganst somthing. If there was a factory weight you could have thrown it off. I would first visually inspect it to look for dents of dings or spots where a weight used to be. While I was doing this I would swap u-joints too
