I bought a used Ford E150 custom van. It had a 63 to 80 mph shake mostly in the body not much in the steering wheel. After many tire store rebalances and rotations I was told the problem was the cheap tires had problems but could not be warrantied. So we are going on a big trip and I bought 4 new Michelins. The vibration is the same even when rebalanced and rotated nothing changes still shakes. Today I removed drive shaft and had new u joints and shaft straightened and balanced. NO change in vibration level. So I checked wheel runout and all 4 aluminum wheels were less than .010 wobble. Can brake drums out of balance cause vibration? Or what?
