Alignment

if your car is out of alignment, could it cause wheel shake/vibration ? My 04 GT is vibrating between 40-55 MPH and is pulling to the right. Ive had all tires road forced balanced and everything checked out suspension wise.

You probably have a tire thats starting to seperate, or is still out of balance, even a bent rim.

A bad tie-rod end would cause the issue you are describing. They are a pretty easy fix. You will still need an alignment after you do those.

Why haven't you just gotten an alignment? I would not think it could be specific to a speed range, but there is no reason not to get it done.

If your tires are wearing fine, and your steering wheel is straight, you don't need an alignment. If front end
checked out good you have a out of balance tire, bent rim, our a tire starting to seperate.
