Default Bad Vibes at Freeway Speeds

My '03 Ram 1500 4x4 Laramie Quad Cab has a bad vibration starting at 65+ (mph).
It's definitely a "lower frequency" vibration similar to a tire out of balance as opposed to driveline which is a much higher frequency.
Rotated the tires - no change.
Rebalanced the tires- no change.
Replaced the tires with new Michelins - no change.
Replaced the wheels - no change.
If it's not the tires or wheels, then what else could be causing the bad vibes?

Yep, those are not probably an issue with wheels and tires. They are most likely caused by faulty CV axle or bad engine mounts.
