vibration

My truck is a '76 4x4 f100. It is lifted 6 inches. In the rear a block is stacked on top of the factory block. In the front the radius arms are factory length and aren't dropped. Does anyone know what might prevent the vibration? I am thinking maybe new leaf springs with out the extra block and extended radius arms plus something called wrap trap. Wrap trap serves the same purpose of ladder/traction bars. Any suggestions? I have 35x15x15 super swamper tsl's. I don't think that would cause vibration that bad. It is also only at certain speeds. Usually worse around 40-50 mph. It actually only happens around that speed.

Its probably the tires, if nothing is loose in your front end. T.S.L.'s are inherently out of round.
