Shaking at 45 mph.
Welcome to FTE!
It could need an alignment or a wheel balancing. Can you feel the shaking through the steering wheel? Does it only happen at certain speeds or 45 and up? Check to make sure nothing is on the driveshaft too.

Check your ball joints and tie rods,then have all four tires spin balanced and checked for bent rims. If you suspect the drive shaft just replace with junk yard replacement.It should be most cost effective in this order. hope this helps

I bought an old 92 f150 and had this exact problem. I replaced the tie rod ends first, still had problem. Ended up replacing all tie rods and the problem was cured. My ball joints were still good. Take the weight off the front end and check for looseness.
