If the tires were checked and good, it sounds like it could be a wheel hub issue or a suspension problem. Can you jack up the front end, and spin the wheels to see if any noise is coming from the hub itself.

Does it all of the sudden happen? There is a a problem with these trucks that happens at approximatley 60 mph when the torque converter locks, there are rivets inside that loosen up and shake enough where you would notice them.

Also,

inspect the steering linkage, frame ball joints, tie rods, frame ball joints or king pins.
