High speed vibration

Hello everyone, i have an 88 gxl and when I jump on the freeway and hit approx 75mph and higher the steering wheel starts to shake. It seems as if the whole car is shaking. I just had the front wheels balanced and that only helped a little bit. Any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance----ren

Have you had front alignment lately? Tie Rods could be worn or damaged.

Check the insides of your wheels for bends...
