In the old days we called it a shimmy. If it's a vibration and it's a 4x4 it might be a u-joint/CV joint but it sounds like the beginning of the horroble 'death wobble'. To little caster, worn steering links, bad ball joints, loose wheel bearings, or bad shocks are main causes. Tires bulging and out of round caused a wobble in our Sentra one time. Death Wobble happens often in old ridged axle front ends.
Some times swapping wheels can 'fix it'.
Have a good one.. with two scoops!.. Don S..
