Default Front End Shutter/vibration at 30-35mph?

Hey guys, well today we got about 6inches of snow, I had to do some running around, so I took the truck and put it in 4x4 for the first time this year, the 4x4 worked good up until I headed home, i started getting a bad vibration at about 30mph from the front right wheel assembly, i would almost compare it to death wobble that i have had in my jeep. I had switched back into 4x2 and still i had the shutter. So far i have checked the half shaft for tears, and broken, tie rod, ball joints. Any thoughts?

-Chris

I'm willing to bet some snow is packed in one of the rims throwing the balance off.......most likely causing some vibration. Even a little amount of snow will cause this to happen.
