Truck Shaking rapidly
when going down the highway once i reach speeds of 65+ my truck vibrates like CRAZY! i dont know wat it is the whole truck feels like its going to fall apart only at speeds 65+ tho any ideas
Have you fixed your plenum and clogged cat? Mine would misfire on cylinder #8 and combined with a clogging/clogged cat it would shake real bad at 45Mph, so much I couldn't go any faster then 45.
Also another thing to consider is are your wheels/tires all in balance?

You could pull your #8 plug and take a look, or take off your throttle body and have a look in the intake.
Either a clogged cat or misfire is the only thing I can think of motor wise. I suppose it's possible it could be something with the transmission if everything else checks out.
Quick test, next time you plan to be highway at highways speeds take out your pre-cat O2 sensor and see if it runs any better. Removing the sensor temporarily will release some of the pressure in the cat if it's clogged up.

stewie if it only at highway speeds then it doesnt sound like a clogged cat to me. correct me if im wrong, but wouldnt it would show symptoms in all fourgears everytime he hit the gas pedal when under load. not just at highway speed.

I couldn't get past 45 and it would only shake at 45. But that's just my personal experience.
I kinda think it may be a bent rim or out of balance tire.
I've never had an alignment issue cause a shake. And I've had alignment's pretty bad outta wack, enough to eat clean through one side of the tire
