When driving down road the truck begins shaking around 45 mph. It's not a normal shake like bad tire or balance. It feels like it's going to shake the truck apart. If you accelerate fast when you first take off it doesn't do it. Once you reach about 55 mph it settles back out. There's also a thumping type noise in front end.

Hi there,

I would be getting the tyres inspected for a defect and a balance issue, also get a general suspension & steering inspection done as well and don't forget wheel bearings as if they are out of adjustment you will get shimmy problems as well, start here.
