vibration

I have a03 expy fx-4 5.4l w/98000 mi when on the highway I have a nice smooth ride until I reach 80-90mph then I can feel a vibration on the gas pedal. Does anyone else notice this. I was wondering if it could be the u-joint. If it is how do I know this and is it difficult to fix yourself. I consider myself pretty handy when it comes to repairs.

Rotate the tires first (front to back). If the problem goes away, it's most likely tires.

One other thing to check, just takes a minute. Check and make sure that your throttle cable under the hood is properly clipped in place. I got my oil changed once and they took the cable out of the clips to check something and failed to put it back in the clips. The gas pedal had a funny vibration for a couple of days until I figued out what happened.
