are you sure it wasn't there before? is it in the steering or the seat? does it happen when accelerating or does it go away when coasting?

An out of balance brake drum would be quite a stretch but, thats the only thing you replaced that is actually moving, I guess I would start there.

Hi

Sometimes the balancing weight on the tire falls off accidentally and could cause it.
