Front suspension help

Alrighty. Got a 91 F250, RWD, 7.3

When I hit 60+ on the highway my front end will start shaking. I did the axle bushings and it stopped trying to kill me, but I still feel some vibration. I know I need new shocks all around, and my front tires are worn weird because of the old bad axle bushings. My questions are,

1)What are some good heavy duty shocks that I can put on there. I don't care about a slightly rougher ride. It's a work truck, not a Cadillac.

2)Will my off-worn tires have an effect on the vibration

3)Is there anything else I can look at to maybe pinpoint where this blasted vibration is coming from.

Tires will definitely affect or cause vibration. Try rotating them and see if it makes a difference, at least it's free
