vibration..

ever since ive had my truck ive noticed a vibration. if no one is in the passenger seat the whole seat vibrates.. not to mention drinks in the cup holder.. what could be the cause? tires are in good shape and rotated often.. have never checked ball joints or anything.. its a 99 ranger 4x4..

Sounds like a wheel bearing. Might want to lift the tires and see if one is a little loose, or if you can hear one growl when it's spun.
