Mine was doing the same thing, it was like riding in a washing machine that was off balance. Thing is, it was intermittent, sometimes it would do it two or three times a week and sometimes I'd go months without the "death shake".
I was banging my head on the wall, jacked up the front end, nothing seemed loose. It did not make any sense.
I'm happy to report that the truck has not had the death shake since January and all I did was balance and rotate the tires.
Hell if I know.
