My 1991 dodge dakota has recently started to shake. its not bad a low speeds almost unnoticable but once i get around 50 mph it starts to shake. soft at first but starts getting harder. The wheels were realigned not to long ago. If you have any suggestions please tell me.

This is so classic of a wheel balance problem. A weight can come off, tires can wear and mud can get on the inside of the rim. If you feel it in the steering wheel, start with the fronts. IF no mud is present, then get em balanced and have them eyeball the trueness of the rim and tire while on the balancer.
