my truck has a shake at 50 mph and again at 75-80mph. I replaced the front driveline and the rotoflex last week. I have replaced the tie rod end, I have had the tires balanced 3 times, alignment done. I'm running out of ideas. Any thoughts would be great.

Have you rotated the tire and did that change anything?

Correct, road shock (off road shock) and kick back.
No where is it intended to mask vibrations from problems in the steering or suspension.
Plus the Wiki shit is geared more toward motorcycles.

You said you replaced your front driveline (driveshaft?)... Did you rebuild the old one or install a new one? If so did they rebalance the shaft?
