To follow up on answer #1. Raise the right front tire off the ground with a jack. Once in the air, try pulling and pushing on the tire to see if it loose. if it is, Most likely a wheel bearing. Check lug nuts to see if there are any missing. If so Replace.

Check tyres for failure
check for disc rotor failure ( warped or broken)

SOURCE: 98 chevy astro vibrates n shakes at 65mph

have you check the wheels. to see if there balanced right. if you jack it up and grab the top and bottom of the wheel and shack it does it move. that will be bad ball joints..check your tie rods.

SOURCE: 98 chevy astro front end vibrates and shakes at 65 mph

You may have to get your wheels re ballanced if you lost one of the weight's on the rim. The other thing to is a bent rim if you hit a large pot hole or crub and last to see if the tire it self has funny wear patterns on the treads.
Other things to look for if your wheels are ok. Check the ball joints Check the tie rod ends Check and pay attention to the Idler and Pitman arm. Your looking for any excessive movments
A good way is to grease all that is mentioned above and see if the vibration is gone.
Lost thing would be the brake rotors but you'ld now that by having vibrations throught out any speed when you apply the brakes to slow down.
Good luck and hope this helps, you should be able to do this on your own other then checking the wheel ballance.

I drive a 2004 ford Expedition XLT, two wheel drive, with air suspension, front right tire is worn on the outermost edge and she shimmy ' s at 65mph and above, lm thinking it's the wheel hubs? What do you...

Your best bet is to go to a place that specializes in front ends,no big chain company,we have one here,they will check the whole front end out,may already know cause they may have repair one like yours before,plus all vehicles have a history,best not to start replacing parts,can get costly if your not sure,they will give you a free estimate.

Why does my car starts to shake after 65mph

This problem is normally caused by one of two things, either an out of alignment front end or a bad, unbalanced, or underinflated tire. A out of aligned front end will normally cause uneven wear on your tires, check for uneven wear and for any noticable cracks on the tires, then take to a alignment/tire shop and request a FREE quote to repair.

My 2001 buick lesabre starts to make a dronning sound from the front end around 30mph and gets louder the faster you go!

Wheel bearings or hubs.If you listen and turn one way or the other the sound goes away.It's usually the one your turning towards,and the sound goes away.Here's the process.

Front end shacking when I run over small bump in road.

If it is still under warranty take it to the dealer. You could have at a minimum have thrown the weights off the tires. But anything like tie rod ends or belts in the tires could be bad.

Strange noise from front drivers side after approaching 30mph.

2 possibilities bearings or damaged rotor. Inspect the rotor, and you can jack the vechicle up just by that tire leaveing the tire free to turn. grab the wheel on the sides try and shake top to bottom in and out, then side to side in and out. If you have play more than likely its your hub bearings.

Power train, transmission questions.

Get ready for a overhaul. Ask the transmission companies and they will tell you that us Dodge owners are their best customers. Your torque converter is getting toasted. You have about 10k before it goes. Sorry for the news. Got mine done and now at 213, ooo so it was worth 1700 to get it fixed. got an extra 60 k and going strong.
