All the tyres are not out-of-round and good balanced!
First I suspect the rear propeller shaft then I took it to the workshop to get fine balance, but it still vibrating!
Then I change mind to the front propeller shaft, when I remove it the vibration disappeared, so my Suspicion is the constant velocity joint or something in front axle.

Note:the front propeller shaft is balanced in a work-shop.

The propeller shaft I've got uses a constant velocity C/V joint at both the axle and transfercase end of the propeller shaft !
