My van shakes between 45 and 60 MPH. Recently I had to have the entire rear end replaced due to a warped left rear axle and a messed up rear end. I have had the tires balanced, front end alignment checked good, and the entire front brakes (calipers, rotors, pads) replaced due to a frozen right front caliper. The tires and tread are also good. Had a full tune up done w/exception of cleaning the fuel injectors and the engine runs fine. The van shook before having the rear end replaced, and the shaking was the original problem I took the van to the dealer for. Is there anything I can check at home, or have someone else check without paying an extreme amount of money to have done that could possibly resolve the shaking?

Axles usually dont "warp" all by themselves.... Has this van been in an accident of any kind? Might want to look for bent rims, does the whole van shake? does the steering wheel move?
