OK guys. I spent 50 bucks on a wheel balance and its still vibrating at 75mph. I had the driveshaft balanced when I put in new u-joints about 1 1/2 years ago. I dont think its the front end because the steering wheel is straight and a lot of that was replaced when I was in an accident 2 years ago. Its more like a hum than a vibration, but you can feel it.

That's what it sounds like to me. That or rear wheels lost there balancers. Or if you have firestones......
