Did they ever test the alignment on your truck?

That usually causes steering wheel vibration at higher speeds.

Yep no help still same I have Supposedly the year and model that had the rough idle that is Characteristic of my truck and now my mechanic says it is related to that and just drive it still don't know if I should live with it or not two dealerships and two Certified mechanics haven't been able to figure it out yet I feel like I'm wasting my money right now. Maybe drive it for a While and hopefully it will get worse and be Obvious what it is in the future.

Have you replaced ball joints/tie rod ends/sway bar links?

My old ones were shot and my steering wheel shook pretty good on the hwy. Now it's pretty rock solid.
