Default Shaking/vibrations from 35mph and up when accelerating

I have a 2001 dodge ram 1500 318 auto 4x4 and from about 35 mph on up through highways speeds it shakes and shudders, very bad at Times but only upon acceleration around 4-5 gear(overdrive). I can hear something clunk when I take hard right or left turns but I can't seem to find what it is. Also my tach bounces around at steady speeds so maybe it is engine related? Someone please help

I think you have several problems, all contributing....

Bad TPS. Blown plenum. Clunk is prolly related to the rock solid ram steering fix. (google search, it's a bushing for the base of the steering column.)
