I had an 80+ mph vibration recently. Turned out it was a tire out of balance. After balancing all was good.
I picked mine up from the dealer this morning. They dismounted and "match mounted" the RR tire and balanced all four. It seems fixed, based on a quick test on the way home. I have a big highway trip planned this weekend so will know more after.

Mine only vibrates, 50-65, while pulling my 14’ tandem axle, enclosed trailer. Every wheel balanced and checked for warp. Phasing, too??? But, probably not. Who knows??

I also have vibrations at take off and highways speeds. 2021 STX 4x4. Only mods are leveling struts and 265/70/17 tires. Stock Ford Rims. 4 balances, and two sets of tires later. Still vibrates.

I have the same issues with nearly identical setup, but with a 2WD. Going to have to have the dealer look at it soon.

Any updates on yours? What setting are your struts at?
