See my profile,

Check your wheels for missing wheel weights

Mud, caked on your rim can throw you out of balance

tire damage

you may have knocked it out of alignment

at alignment shop, have them check your steering system for "bents" (tie rods) and "worn" components (like tie rod ends)

Also your "U" joints may be worn....ask them to check those also

Respond with good, inexpensive news!
