97 Nissan Pathfinder, vibration in wheel and pedal at speeds over 45mph. Replaced, Struts, Shocks, Wheel Bearings, Lower ball joints, and stabilizer links and control arm bushings within the last year. What can it be? Whats left, U Joints maybe something with the drive train?

A rapid vibration that feels like a humm or a slow vibraton that feels like wobble/shake?

Well the humming went away mostly once I changed the wheel bearings on both sides, I knew they were going bad. Now its quieter but still vibrates over 45mph, it doesn't shake or dance around. If I let go of gas it stops immediately once below 45mph and seems perfectly normal but I do a lot of highway driving so its driving me nuts!

Does it do it under acceleration or at steady speed? Sounds like it's not load related, just speed related? That usually means wheels/tires.
