Exclamation Vibrations!! Can they be fixed?

I drive a 2003 F250 Superduty with a 6.5 inch lift. This weekend I was on the highway and around 70 - 75mph and also aroud 45mph and when I brake there is a moderate vibration.

Does anybody have an ideas on what could be causing this or how to fix this?
Thanks.

just a thought...my f150 did the same thing you describe. not sure what engines you have but my f150 had coil on plugs and one of the coils was going bad and would misfire under light throttle in top gear around those speeds...but ran fine otherwise. sometimes it felt like the trans was slipping/vibrating.

Yeah I've got the 7.3 powerstroke with just over 109,000 miles. I just put new 35 BFGoodrich A/T on it. I'm going to try talking to some mechanics and see if there's anything that can be done. I'm having the track bar bushings replaced this Wednesday because I know they've gone bad, but I know that's not the reason for the vibrations.

I'll post any information I find out.
